  1. 1. First step towards development of Distributed thermal response test using heating cables

    University essay from KTH/Industriell ekologi

    Author : Seyed Mazyar Hosseini Moghaddam; Joakim Holmberg Bårman; [2015]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : A Distributed Thermal Response Test is a method to determine ground properties such as thermal conductivity. Knowing the thermal properties of the ground is essential for designing and installing ground source heat pump and BTES systems. READ MORE

  3. 2. Optimization of thermal response test equipment and evaluation tools

    University essay from KTH/Tillämpad termodynamik och kylteknik

    Author : Camille Simondon; [2014]
    Keywords : Borehole Heat Exchanger; Ground Source Heat Pump; Distributed Thermal Response Test; Python; Evaluation Tool;

    Abstract : Nowadays Ground Source Heat Pumps (GSHP) are widely used to provide heating and/or cooling as well as domestic hot water in commercial and residential buildings. The Swedish GSHPs market is the first one in the European Union with more than 378,000 units installed until 2010 according to the Swedish Heat Pump Association (SVEP). READ MORE

  4. 3. Distributed Thermal Response Test on a Grouted U-pipe Borehole Heat Exchanger

    University essay from KTH/Energiteknik

    Author : Marine Marcucci; [2014]
    Keywords : Ground source heat exchanger; grout;

    Abstract : The expansion of the use of geothermal heat pumps makes the study of their performances a keystone in their development. Several parameters are crucial to design properly a geothermal heat pump. Comparing the theoretical characteristics of a system with the actual ones one the field is part of its understanding.
