Abstract

The short-term behavior of borehole heat exchangers (BHE) is investigated using three 2 h test sequences each with constant inlet temperature and constant mass flow rate. Three models of the transient systems simulation program (TRNSYS) have been compared to these measurements. In order to assess the deviations a 3D-FEM model, built in COMSOL Multiphysics®, is compared to the measurement as well.
