ShareDESIGN OF EARTH-COUPLED HEAT-PUMP (ECHP) SYSTEMS IN NORTHERN CLIMATES.
Author(s) : HACKNER R. J., HUGHES P. J., O'NEIL R. A.
Summary
THE 2 MAIN COMPONENTS OF ANY ECHP SYSTEM ARE THE LIQUID-SOURCE HEAT PUMP AND THE EARTH HEAT EXCHANGER. EFFORTS HAVE BEEN MADE TO IMPROVE THE DESIGN OF HEAT PUMPS SPECIFICALLY FO ECHP APPLICATIONS, AS WELL AS TO DETERMINE OPTIMAL EARTH LOOP CONFIGURATIONS AND SIZES. ONE OF THE PRIMARY OBJECTIVES OF THE DEMONSTRATION PROJECT WAS TO MINIMIZE THE INSTALLED COSTS. THE PAPER DESCRIBES THE DESIGN DEVELOPMENT METHODOLOGY THAT PRODUCED THE AFOREMENTIONED TECHNOLOGY TRANSFER MATERIALS FOR THE DESIGN AND INSTALLATION OF RESIDENTIAL ECHP SYSTEMS IN NORTHERN CLIMATES.
