A Numerical Study on the Performance of Ground Heat Exchanger Buried in Fractured Rock Bodies

A Numerical Study on the Performance of Ground Heat Exchanger Buried in Fractured Rock Bodies

The ground source heat pump (GSHP) is receiving increasing attention due to the global trend of energy-saving and emission reduction. However, projects with ground heat exchangers (GHEs) buried in fractured rock bodies are scarce, and the impacts of water flow in fractures on the system performance...
