Abstract
With advantage of less cost on large systems, Ground Water Heat Pump systems (GWHPs) dominate the market of geothermal source heat pump in China. Taking Beijing as an example, this paper discusses some issues on production and injection wells for GWHPs, such as well design and construction, factors influencing system performances, the area suitability and some suggestions to develop GWHPs.
