Comparative Analysis of Different Methodologies Used to Estimate the Ground Thermal Conductivity in Low Enthalpy Geothermal Systems

In ground source heat pump systems, the thermal properties of the ground, where the well field is planned to be located, are essential for proper geothermal design. In this regard, estimation of ground thermal conductivity has been carried out by the implementation of different techniques and labora...
