Experimental and Theoretical Studies on Performance of GSHP Combined with Free Cooling System

Abstract

Ground-Source Heat Pump systems and tower cooling system have been studied in this paper individually by experiment and simulation using TRNSYS, the influencing factors such as meteorological parameter, cooling tower and subunit construction was analyzed. Results show that the combined system has ability to meet the cooling requirements in II building climate zones, the combined system will have energy-saving and obvious economic benefits by working through the year.
