Prediction of ground thermal diffusivity from thermal response tests
Energy and Buildings, 2019Abstract Ground-coupled heat pump (GCHP) systems are being increasingly utilized in recent years. There are several important parameters in the design of GCHP systems. As ground thermal conductivity is one of the most crucial parameters, it should be measured by conducting in-situ thermal response tests (TRTs).

Stochastic interpretation of thermal response test with TRT-SInterp
Computers & Geosciences, 2015A program designed to analyze thermal response tests by deterministic or stochastic inversion is presented. In its current state, the program treats variable heating power signals and emulates a borehole heat exchanger by a finite line-source model or a thermal resistance and capacity model.

Oscillatory thermal response tests to estimate the ground thermal diffusivity
Applied EnergyThermal Response Tests (TRT) have been extensively studied in the past decades and is an important area of research belonging to ground heat exchanger design. The most important thermal property inferred in a TRT is the equivalent subsurface thermal conductivity.

Thermal Response Tests and effects of geological heterogeneity
Rendiconti online della Società Geologica Italiana, 2014The low enthalpy geothermal energy can significantly limit the use of fossil fuels and contribute effectively to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. This source of energy can be exploited through geothermal plants where closed-loop geothermal probes represent the main configuration. These are easy to install, have a simplified authorization procedure and,

Analysis of the first thermal response test in Algeria
Journal of Thermal Analysis and Calorimetry, 2011Ground source heat pumps (GSHPs) mean attractive heating and cooling systems. Optimum design of a borehole heat exchanger (BHE), as the outer part of a GSHP heating system, requires knowledge of the thermal properties of the soil. Those data, the effective thermal conductivity of the soil λeff and the average temperature of the soil T 0

Simulation of thermal response tests in a layered subsurface
Applied Energy, 2013Abstract A conventional thermal response test (TRT) provides a bulk estimate of the subsurface and borehole thermal properties over the length of the ground heat exchanger (GHE). The measurement of temperature inside the borehole during a TRT can be carried out to further determine thermal properties at different depths. The analysis of the transient

The influence of the thermosiphon effect on the thermal response test
Renewable Energy, 2003The issue of natural and forced groundwater movements, and its effect on the performance of ground heat exchangers is of great importance for the design and sizing of borehole thermal energy systems (BTESs). In Scandinavia groundwater filled boreholes in hard rock are commonly used.

Group thermal response testing for energy piles [PDF]
, 2015 ABSTRACT Thermal response testing is an in situ technique for characterising the thermal conductivity of the ground around a borehole heat exchanger. The test has seen renewed interest in recent years as an increasing number of ground heat exchangers are being constructed to provide renewable heating and cooling energy as part of ...
