Abstract

In Ground Source Heat Pump systems, the heat exchange rate is an important factor with regard to the initial cost of the system. When the Ground Heat Exchanger (GHE) is installed in a lithology with high thermal properties in the presence of groundwater, the heat exchange rates are larger than in the cases with poor thermal response of the ground and no groundwater.
