Ground as a source of heat for heat pumps
Heat pumps are an ideal solution for use in newly built passive and energy-plus buildings. One of the many problems present in such construction is the choice of the operational parameters of the lower heat source and the selection of a ground regeneration system which would enable effective regeneration in a short period of time and at a minimal cost.

Assessment of two-level heat pump installations’ power efficiency for heat supply systems
The problem of energy saving becomes one of the most important in power engineering. It is caused by exhaustion of world reserves in hydrocarbon fuel, such as gas, oil and coal representing sources of traditional heat supply.
