Low-Cost Distributed Thermal Response Test for the Estimation of Thermal Ground and Grout Conductivities in Geothermal Heat Pump Applications
The design process of a borehole heat exchanger (BHE) requires knowledge of building thermal loads, the expected heat pump’s COP and the ground’s thermophysical properties. The thermal response test (TRT) is a common experimental technique for estimating the ground’s thermal conductivity and borehol...
