Re: [TRNSYS-users] Type 557: Different borehole configurations

["Mathieu Riegger" <riegger@solites.de>]

Dear Knut Erik Enerstvedt,

 

I would suggest using the SBM model by Per Eskilson. As far as I know this model allows user-defined borehole configurations.

 

Best regards,

Mathieu Riegger

Betreff: [TRNSYS-users] Type 557: Different borehole configurations

Dear TRNSYS 
users,

As I  understand, the 
Type 557 vertical ground heat exchanger models a cylindrical storage volume, 
where the boreholes are placed uniformly within this cylinder. But in many 
cases, one has a different borehole configuration, for example boreholes placed 
on a line or an L-shaped configuration. Does anyone know of a way to simulate 
such borehole configurations in TRNSYS? I am particularly interested in 
boreholes placed on a line.


Thanks and best regards,

Knut Erik
