Advantages of geothermal heat pumps
Even in countries without large geothermal resources, geothermal heat pump can still provide a heating and air conditioning. Like a refrigerator or air conditioning, use these systems for the transfer of a heat pump to force the ground for the application. In theory, the heat is available from one source, no matter how cold, but a source of heat, greater efficiency. A ground-source heat pump using ground level (typically 10-12 ° C 50-54 ° F)as a heat source, making use of its mild seasonal temperatures. In contrast, a heat pump air-source heat from cold outdoor design and thus more energy is needed.
geothermal heat pumps are similar to ordinary heat pumps, but use the ground outside pressure air conditioning provides heating, air, and in many cases hot water. Why use the natural heat of the earth, are one of the efficient and comfortable heating and cooling moreCurrent technology.
The heat pump system using solar energy stored in Earth's crust. Energy is transferred to and from the earth's surface with solar, wind and precipitation. Because of this solar energy more than 10 meters depth the temperature is constant and is comparable with the average annual temperature. Between the surface and a depth of 2.5 meters (maximum depth for a horizontal loop) temperature will be above ground and floatbelow the annual average temperature, depending on the location, type of soil moisture level.
Benefits
Heat pumps and geothermal heat pumps offer important advantages:
O while heating and cooling different parts of a building
Or users quiet, no one knows when the system works
O can be prepared in various sectors, with each zone has a separate control room
o Greater flexibility in building design due to 50-80%less space in mechanical room
No, no equipment or units hidden on the roof and vandalism
Pipes has a duration of 50 years
Or all electric, which removed several utility
boiler or cooling performance and maintenance
