Information

This validation case applies the asymetrical synthetic load profile developed by Pinel (2003) over a 20 year period by directly injecting the heat at the borehole wall in the ground temperature response model. The difference between the resulting borehole wall temperature and the same temperature precalculated by using a fast Fourier transform is calculated with the add component. The fast Fourier transform calculation was done using the same g-function as was calculated by Buildings.Fluid.Geothermal.Borefields.BaseClasses.HeatTransfer.ThermalResponseFactors.gFunction.
