The need to address climate change caused by greenhouse gas emissions attaches great importance to research aimed at using renewable energy. Geothermal energy is an interesting alternative concerning the production of energy for air conditioning of buildings (heating and cooling), through the use of geothermal heat pumps. In this work a model has been developed in order to simulate an air conditioning system with geothermal heat pump. A ground source heat pump (GSHP) uses the shallow ground as a source of heat, thus taking advantage of its seasonally moderate temperatures. GSHP must be coupled with geothermal exchangers. The model leads to design optimization of geothermal heat exchangers and to verify the operation of the geothermal plant.

In this paper, the development and demonstration of a hybrid solar geothermal heat pump polygeneration system is presented. The poly-generation system has been designed, modeled, and simulated in TRNSYS software environment. Its performance was assessed followed by installation and demonstration at a demo site in Cheongju, Korea. The space heating and cooling load of the building is 13.8 kW in heating mode at an ambient temperature of −10.3°C and 10.6 kW in cooling mode at an ambient temperature of 32.3°C. The simulation data were compared with the field demo data using ISO 13256. The results showed that the model data compare well with the demo data both in heating and cooling modes of operation. At a source temperature of 16.7°C, the heat pump lab performance data-based COPc shows 9.9, while demonstration COPc shows 10.3, thus, representing 4.3% relative error. The heat pump source temperature decreased by 4.0°C from 20.9°C to 16.9°C due to ground heat exchanger coupling and resulted in a COPc increase by 13.3% from 8.5 to 9.8. When compared at the design conditions (outside temperature of 32.3°C), the TRSNYS model overestimated the demonstration site data by 12%, 9.3 vs. 8.1 kW with power consumption of 3.1 vs. 2.2 kW. The hybrid polygeneration system power consumption decreased by 1.2 kW when ambient temperature decreased from 35°C to 25°C.

The purpose of this work is to find a protocol and a model that describes the behavior of a geothermal heat pump in an actual environment in order to determine the actual power consumption and capacity of the device. This paper focuses on the use of field measured data to derive the performance of the heat pump. The equation fit model is used as it does not demand very detailed input. The model employs the condenser and evaporator inlet temperatures as input data. The heat pump provides heating and cooling for the living and working area of the zero energy lab which is 1200 sq ft building and designed to intimate a small residence., and both cooling and heating were investigated. A model was generated for each case. Long operation periods were sought for model generating so two experiments were set in different seasons to collect the data for each mode and each experiment lasted for 10 days. Model results showed an error range of ±10% for the unit capacity and power consumption.
