Thermal Characteristics of Slinky-Coil Ground Heat Exchanger with Discrete Double Inclined Ribs

The slinky ground heat exchanger (GHE) is the most widely utilized horizontal-type GHE, however, this GHE has a low curvature coil. The GHE has poor thermal mixing, especially at a low flowrate. At this flowrate, the coil heat exchanger has similar performance to a straight tube heat exchanger. Disc...
