Abstract
The ground source heat pump systems are worldwide used for space heating and cooling of buildings. The energy efficiency of the heat pump depends on the temperature of the heat carrier fluid on the ground side, which is affected by the annual ground load profile and the arrangement of the boreholes.This paper conducts long-term analysis of two office buildings with unbalanced load profiles in Italy. Work focuses the effects of the heat imbalance on the heat pump entering fluid temperature over ten simulated years. A detailed numerical simulation tool was used to conduct the analysis.
