Ground Source Heat Pump Systems for Renewable Heating and Cooling: Design, Numerical Modeling, and Optimization presents a comprehensive account of GSHP systems and their potential for renewable heating and cooling based on unique case studies from Akita University since 2014. The book covers all aspects of ground source heat pump (GSHP) systems for meeting the heating and cooling demands of energy-efficient buildings across the world. With access to critical data and experimental results across countries, from Japan to Canada, and including both vertical and horizontal grounds heat exchangers, this book presents the latest steps and best practices for utilization. Practical elements include maps, installations, field measurements and numerical modeling using the experience of researchers in Japan. Bringing these tools together, the book's chapters offer solutions to the many challenges of these systems, including feasibility studies, optimum well depths, unbalanced heating and cooling demands, and hybrid systems.
