The purpose of this report is to investigate the effects of various parameters in a horizontal loop geothermal heat pump system. The obtained values include the temperature distribution over the entire system as well as the exiting temperature and bulk heat rate of the fluid. The results calculated in this report are set over a 6 month heating period.

The goal of this project was to develop a detailed computer simulation tool for GSHP (ground source heat pump) heating and cooling systems. Two such tools were developed as part of this DOE (Department of Energy) grant; the first is a two-dimensional computer program called GEO2D and the second is a three-dimensional computer program called GEO3D. These computer tools simulate the coupled performance of the ground loop and the heat pump. This report explains the programs in detail and explains their utility.

How does your organization use this dataset? What other NYSERDA or energy-related datasets would you like to see on Open NY? Let us know by emailing OpenNY@nyserda.ny.gov. Water Furnace Geothermal Heat Pumps: Site Characteristics dataset includes data from geothermal heat pump installations in upstate New York provided by the contractors responsible for the installation of each system. The characteristics were compiled when performing work contracted for and sponsored by the New York State Energy Research and Development Authority (NYSERDA). NYSERDA offers objective information and analysis, innovative programs, technical expertise, and support to help New Yorkers increase energy efficiency, save money, use renewable energy, and accelerate economic growth. reduce reliance on fossil fuels.

This archive contains both a link to Oak Ridge National Laboratory's Ground Source Heat Pump (GSHP) Screening Tool and related resources documenting its development, technical features, and applications. The web-based screening tool is a techno-economic analysis resource designed to evaluate the feasibility, costs, and benefits of implementing GSHP systems in buildings across various U.S. climate zones. It is intended for use by building owners, HVAC system designers, and installers to support decision-making in residential and commercial applications, incorporating advanced modeling capabilities such as ground heat exchanger design. The included resources detail the tool's creation and use, covering topics such as innovative ground heat exchanger design methodologies, the development of an open library of g-functions for borehole configurations, and studies on GSHP performance and economic viability in retrofitting single-family homes.

The data on this page consists of .csv files that contain vertical flow measurements within the borehole and the associated depth below land surface. Measurements recorded under both ambient and stressed conditions are contained in each file.
