This authoritative guide provides a basis for understanding theemerging technology of ground source heating and cooling. It equipsengineers, geologists, architects, planners and regulators with thefundamental skills needed to manipulate the ground's huge capacityto store, supply and receive heat, and to implement technologies(such as heat pumps) to exploit that capacity for space heating andcooling.
The author has geared the book towards understanding groundsource heating and cooling from the ground side (the geologicalaspects), rather than solely the building aspects. Heexplains the science behind thermogeology and offers practicalguidance on different design options.
An Introduction to Thermogeology: ground source heating andcooling is aimed primarily at professionals whose skill areasimpinge on the emerging technology of ground source heating andcooling. They will be aware of the importance of the technology andwish to rapidly acquire fundamental theoretical understanding anddesign skills.
This second edition has been thoroughly updated and expanded tocover new technical developments and now includes end-of-chapterstudy questions to test the reader's understanding.
