Scientists from China have developed a novel optimization method for medium-depth ground source heat pumps, using an improved chaos particle swarm optimization. They coupled it with either a heat ...

Researchers in Sweden sought to raise the efficiency of ground source heat pumps by combining their operation with that of PVT systems and free cooling. Through a series of simulations, they found ...

BRIGHTON, COLO. — One of Colorado’s largest geothermal projects is soon drawing to a close. When finished, Solaire Apartments, in Brighton, Colo., will be entirely heated and cooled by ground-source ...

Heat pumps run on electricity instead of gas, and are more efficient than traditional boilers. They warm buildings by ...

Heat pumps are often talked about as a single technology type, but in practice, there are two main systems used in UK homes: air source and ground source. Both systems work on the same principle, ...

With a little guidance on ground-source heat pump design temperatures and a few rules of thumb for ground loop flow rates, most engineers are pretty comfortable designing the building side of a ground ...

IN THIS MONTH'S column we will begin looking at ground source heat pumps as a means of providing efficient heating and cooling to buildings of all shapes and sizes. Ground source heat pumps (GSHP) ...

If you're considering using a ground source heat pump to heat your home, you could be wondering what type of ground source heat pump problems you may encounter. Or, perhaps you have one and have a few ...

Add Yahoo as a preferred source to see more of our stories on Google. Air source heat pumps are the most common option in the UK because they need less space and are easier to install. (Octopus Energy ...
