Geothermal source heat pump (GSHP) systems as renewable energy systems are being more frequently installed as part of the zero-energy building drive. However, in South Korea, where a large amount of heating load can be required, maintaining high system performance by using only a GSHP is difficult owing to the gradual degradation of its thermal performance. The performance of a solar-assisted GSHP system was therefore experimentally analyzed and compared with a GSHP-only system. The results showed that the heating coefficient of performance of the GSHP-only operation was 5.4, while that of the solar-assisted GSHP operation was 7.0. In the case of the GSHP-only system, the maximum temperature of the heat pump water supply on the heat source side was initially 13.1 °C, but this rapidly decreased to 11.4 °C during operation. For the solar-assisted GSHP system, the temperature of the water supply to the heat source side of the heat pump was controlled at 15–20.9 °C, and the power consumption for system operation was reduced by about 20% compared with that for the GSHP-only system. Much higher temperatures could be supplied when solar heat is used instead of ground heat, as solar heat contributes to the performance improvement of the heat pump system.

A hot-water and air-conditioning (HWAC) combined ground sourse heat pump(GSHP) system with horizontal ground heat exchanger self-designed and actualized was presented in this paper. The heat transfer performance for the heat exchanger of two different pipe arrangements, three layers and four layers, respectively, was compared. It showed that the heat exchange quantity per pipe length for the pipe arrangement of three layers and four layers are 18.0 W/m and 15.0 W/m. The coefficient of performance (COP) of unit and system could remain 4.8 and 4.2 as GSHP system for heating water, and the COP of heating and cooling combination are up to 8.5 and 7.5, respectively. The power consumption of hot-water in a whole year is 9.0 kwh/t. The economy and feasibility analysis on vertical and horizontal ground heat exchanger were made, which showed that the investment cost per heat exchange quantity of horizontal ground heat exchanger is 51.4% lower than that of the vertical ground heat exchanger, but the occupied area of the former is 7 times larger than the latter's.

Solution regeneration of the heat-source tower is significant to guarantee the normal operation of the heat-source tower. Mechanical vapor recompression system is an efficient system for evaporation of solution. In this paper, mechanical vapor recompression system is applied to regenerate solution of heat-source tower. To clarify the merits of mechanical vapor recompression solution regeneration system, several typical solution regeneration systems are modelled. As a result, mechanical vapor recompression shows 35.7%, 73.5% and 91.2% energy saving compared to air-driven heat pump, three-effect evaporating system, and single effect evaporating system, respectively. Furthermore, a heat-source tower heat pump with solution generation system is installed in a typical building in Yangtze river region. The whole heating season performance is simulated to find the effects of different solution regeneration system on the whole heat pump system. As a conclusion, the seasonal coefficient of performance of heat pump is decreased 1.6% by mechanical vapor recompression regeneration system. Comparatively, the seasonal coefficient of performance of heat pump is decreased 2.6%, 4.2% and 10.0% by air-driven heat pump, three-effect evaporating system, and single effect evaporating system, respectively. Practical application: Solution regeneration systems for heat-source tower heat pump systems have been applied in building projects especially in hot summer and cold winter zone in China based on previous investigation. A heat-source tower heat pump system combined with heat pump solution regeneration system has been applied in an office building in Changsha, Hunan Province in China. And its practical operation energy consumption has been reduced obviously compared with traditional single effect evaporation system. Therefore, it is of vital importance to demonstrate the operating performance of different solution regeneration systems applied in heat-source tower heat pump systems in building.

Taking the geothermal heat pump system in the campus of Hunan University of Technology for example, three technical solutions of the heat source of the system were analyzed in terms of the condensing heat load, the annual unbalanced heat load and the energy efficiency ratio (EER) of the system. In addition, comparison was conducted among the solutions. The results indicate that the solution 3, which has a cold and hot water integrative unit and hot water unit connected in series, meanwhile has a cooling tower for auxiliary cooling, shows better performance among all the solutions. The analysis on the solution of heat source of geothermal heat pump system, which usually contains the analysis on the condensing heat load, annual unbalanced heat load and EER, is of great significance for the design and development of the geothermal heat pump system with lower coat and higher EER.

Polygeneration System

In this paper, the development and demonstration of a hybrid solar geothermal heat pump polygeneration system is presented. The poly-generation system has been designed, modeled, and simulated in TRNSYS software environment. Its performance was assessed followed by installation and demonstration at a demo site in Cheongju, Korea. The space heating and cooling load of the building is 13.8 kW in heating mode at an ambient temperature of −10.3°C and 10.6 kW in cooling mode at an ambient temperature of 32.3°C. The simulation data were compared with the field demo data using ISO 13256. The results showed that the model data compare well with the demo data both in heating and cooling modes of operation. At a source temperature of 16.7°C, the heat pump lab performance data-based COPc shows 9.9, while demonstration COPc shows 10.3, thus, representing 4.3% relative error. The heat pump source temperature decreased by 4.0°C from 20.9°C to 16.9°C due to ground heat exchanger coupling and resulted in a COPc increase by 13.3% from 8.5 to 9.8. When compared at the design conditions (outside temperature of 32.3°C), the TRSNYS model overestimated the demonstration site data by 12%, 9.3 vs. 8.1 kW with power consumption of 3.1 vs. 2.2 kW. The hybrid polygeneration system power consumption decreased by 1.2 kW when ambient temperature decreased from 35°C to 25°C.
