I need formulas to cover the length of the pipe,length of borehole, the vertical and horizontal positioning, the capacity of the heat pump, etc. based on the cooling and heating load of the building.
I need the steps to select the geothermal pump for the building.
CALCULATION OF THE HEAT PUMP SYSTEM An example of calculation is performed for heat pump systems of exploitation of geothermal energy with the following rules:
1) For average-sized objects (186 – 223 m2) necessary thermal power is 10,6 kW to 11,4 kW, depending on climate conditions 2) Length of the pipe for vertical heat exchanger is 13 m/kW to 17 m/kW, and for the horizontal approximately 30% to 50% longer 3) Installation depth of the horizontal heat exchanger is from 1,2 m to 1,8 m
