Abstract:
In this paper, consideration is given to the effi ciency of utilization of the low-potential heat of the ground. Also,the advantages and distinctive features of polyethylene tubes used in vertical tubular elements of heat pumps are
described. This paper gives the results of investigation of the heat transfer of tubular elements of ground heat exchangers. The dependences of the temperature distributions in the ground in the vicinity of a tube and the change in the temperature with time in dry and moist grounds are determined.
