Modern geothermal HVAC : engineering and control applications

Modern geothermal HVAC : engineering and control applications is not meant to replace the long-time geothermal entities and tradesman classes that provide the hands-on and technical training needed in the field. Organizations such as IGSHPA and GeoExchange will continue to serve a vital role in rolling this technology out into the mainstream of the world. This book is designed to educate our engineering minds about the potential of geothermal HVAC when properly integrated with hydronic systems and with controls that are designed to operate at a standard equal to or better than that for which the equipment was designed.

Coverage includes: Low-temperature geothermal or earth coupling Geothermal heat-pump equipment Variations in earth coupling Application of earth coupling with regard to site conditions Closed-loop earth coupling and fusion Intermediate heat exchanger usage in geothermal applications Standing column and open geothermal systems Fundamentals of comfort, psychrometrics, and thermodynamics Hydronic and air HVAC system basics Hydronic HVAC system equipment Variations and improvements to hydronic systems Control systems Load sharing and energy recovery Calculating system efficiencies, heat gain, and loss Geothermal rebates, incentives, and renewables legislation.
