Effect of backfill on the performance of a vertical U-tube ground coupled heat pump /

The present work is concerned with developing a discretized analytical model to investigate the effect of a backfill on the performance of a vertical U-tube ground-coupled heat pump. This work involves the development of an analytical solution and an expression for the equivalent diameter, and the...
