Hi All I am wondering what the configuration of the borehole is. When you look at the parameters list in the proforma, we can
read that the volume storage has a cylindrical shape and that its volume can be
calculated as following : Storage Volume = Pi * Number of Boreholes * Borehole Depth *
(0.525 * Borehole Spacing)^2 What does this mean about the configuration
in the cylindrical volume of ground? I see it is the volume of ground surrounding one borehole, the
outer diameter of the ground cylinder being half of the spacing, times the number
of boreholes… But I struggle to see what configuration it is in the cylinder
of ground. And also, is the energy transfer independent for each
borehole, or does the spacing influences it? (i.e the geometrical layout is
important) How far are the boreholes from the side
of the ground cylinder? Thanks for some help… PS : by the way, it would have been nice
to have access to the parameters/inputs/outputs description in the table where
we set them, (as usual), instead of having to go in the proforma everytime…
