Ground-air heat exchangers have become an important topic in recent years due to their contributions to the market growth of the ground source heat pump industry. This paper provides a comprehensive study and recommends suggestions on the selection process of a suitable pipe for an air-to-water heat pump (AWHP). Parametric studies including material, turbulent plate quantity, and pipe type were performed to identify an optimal pipe design for high-performance AWHP. Both numerical and experimental studies were carried out to validate current pipe models. Overall, there was good agreement between the numerical model and experimental results. It was determined that a spirally corrugated pipe exhibited excellent thermal power generation with little compromising pressure drop. Finally, a pipe selection example was demonstrated as a design guideline to size an optimal pipe for AWHP application. |
