Proposal for a Method Predicting Suitable Areas for Installation of Ground-Source Heat Pump Systems Based on Response Surface Methodology

The installation potential of ground-source heat pump (GSHP) systems has been studied based on the spatial interpolation of numerical simulation results using ground heat exchanger (GHE) models. This study is the first to create an estimation formula for the heat exchange rate (HER) to obtain a solu...
