Abstract

Generally, a Horizontal Ground Heat Exchanger (HGHE) is installed in shallow depths, which can influence the land surface temperature during its operation period, especially when a high heat demand is required. Consequently, the existing methods of using time-varying land surface temperatures are not sufficient for the HGHE simulations. In this paper, a numerical framework considering the atmosphere-soil-HGHE interaction was proposed and validated. The outlet temperatures of a slinky-type HGHE installed in a multi-layered soil field were then investigated under the heating scenario by considering the local meteorological and geological conditions. The results showed that the operation of the HGHE affected obviously the land surface temperature and the ground heat flux. The increase of the installation depth from 0.5 to 2 m increased the outlet temperatures. However, this increase was insignificant when the installation depth increased from 0.5 to 1 m. It was further identified that the non-consideration of the atmosphere-soil interaction overestimated the annual fluid outlet temperature in the heating scenario, and this overestimation decreased from 47.99% to 17.16% as the installation depth increased from 0.5 to 2 m. In conclusion, it is necessary to consider the atmosphere-soil interaction to predict precisely the outlet temperatures of a shallow HGHE.
