A Review on Analysis of Geothermal Heat Pump, Its Use and Benefits

Abstract

Geothermal systems are becoming popular day by day during the surge of green buildings. Ground Source heat pump (GSHP) or Geothermal heat pump are arrangments of Uniting heat pumps with high enthalpy geothermal resources or by providing by groundwater from well in an open-loop system. Since a few decades of research focusing on GSHP through the world resulted in a well-recognized concept of sustainability for this technology. Heat pump systems offer economical alternatives for recovering heat from different sources for use in various industrial, commercial, and residential applications. As the cost of energy continues to rise, it becomes imperative to save energy and improve overall energy efficiency The major benefits of this system are they do not pollute the environment, and the reason behind this is because they are operated from earth’s natural energy and do not alter the chemical compound. A large number of geothermal heat pumps are operational, but meanwhile installing and control on the quality of the system is a major issue till today. This study deals with reviewing heat pump studies, analyzing the development and type in the first part, benefits, and usage was briefly given and the paper concludes with analyzed data on GSHP.
