This dataset encompasses the development of a geothermal energy system for the West Woodlawn neighborhood in Chicago, Illinois. This project is part of a broader initiative to design and deploy geothermal heating and cooling systems at a community scale. The dataset includes thermal conductivity test results, calculations for borehole sizing based on the American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air-Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE) method, as well as simulated thermal loads based on actual energy usage from individual buildings. Also provided here are files used for numerical modeling via COMSOL Multiphysics to simulate borefield design and subsurface thermal behavior. Two manuscripts are attached, which outline the broad objectives of the project and a description of the numerical modeling methodology and results.

This dataset contains materials from the Coalition for Community-Supported Affordable Geothermal Energy Systems (C2SAGES) project, which evaluated the techno-economic feasibility of a community geothermal system for a residential development in Hinesburg, VT. The dataset includes detailed soil conductivity test reports, energy models, borehole design reports, hourly energy loads for heating, cooling, and hot water, and design layouts. EnergyPlus was used to model building energy loads, and Modelica software was applied for geothermal loop sizing based on these loads and soil conductivity results. Python scripts for network design further refined the models. Key files include PDF reports on borehole design (with projections for 1-year, 15-year, and 30-year systems), soil conductivity test results, EnergyPlus modeling outputs, and 2D/3D design drawings in PDF, DWG, and DXF formats. Python notebooks for network design and OnePipe model files are also provided, with Modelica required for viewing certain files. Outputs and modeling data are in various formats including CSV, JPG, HTML, and IDF, with units and data clearly labeled to support understanding of system design and performance for the proposed geothermal solution.

Report on a formation thermal conductivity test that was performed on the geothermal test bore at Ulbrich Heights at 38 Louis Circle Lane in Wallingford, Connecticut. Data are applicable only within the Wallingford region and should not be extrapolated for other climatic and geographic regions. The analysis assumes no systemic defects in the borehole prior to and during installing and testing. A graphite and Bentonite grouting mixture was assumed to be consistent throughout borehole length. These data were collected as part of the Community Geothermal Heating and Cooling Design and Deployment Grant Program. This associated project's goal is to design and develop a district geothermal heating and cooling system that will serve at least 50% of the heating and cooling load of a 132-unit, affordable housing complex in Wallingford, CT. The project is led by Connecticut Department of Energy and Environmental Protection (DEEP). Borehole drilling and thermal conductivity testing were conducted by Connecticut Wells Inc. and data were analyzed by Geothermal Resource Technologies Inc. (GRTI).

This dataset provides an overview of the design, development, and technical specifications of for a community-scale geothermal heating and cooling system in Carbondale, Colorado. This thermal energy network (TEN) within the town's Three-Two Zero Energy District (32ZED) is part of the town's efforts to achieve carbon neutrality by 2050. Provided here is a case study report detailing project objectives, technical and environmental assessments, building energy modeling, retrofit designs, and community engagement efforts. The dataset also contains design drawings for TEN components, including an Ambient Temperature Loop, Geo-Borefield, High Temperature Loop, and Mechanical and Electrical Designs for retrofitting the Third Street Center in Carbondale. These drawings cover infrastructure like ATL pumps, heat exchangers, boilers, and HTL heat pumps, offering technical blueprints that complement the report?s findings.

Provided here are a final thermal conductivity test report, a drilling log, and a heat rejection log from Carbondale, CO. Also attached is a report made before drilling, which contains predictions on the hydrogeologic conditions of the drill site. The forty-eight (48.9) hour in-situ thermal conductivity test was performed on the 28th through the 30th, of November 2023. The test was performed at the borehole drilled on November 16th through the 20th, at the 3rd Street Center at 520 S. 3rd, Street in Carbondale, Colorado. Testing was done with a certified Ewbank portable test unit.
