Distributed Thermal Response Tests Using a Heating Cable and Fiber Optic Temperature Sensing

Thermal response tests are used to assess the subsurface thermal conductivity to design ground-coupled heat pump systems. Conventional tests are cumbersome and require a source of high power to heat water circulating in a pilot ground heat exchanger. An alternative test method using heating cable wa...
