Geothermal heat pump(GHP) systems use vertical borehole heat exchangers to transfer heat to and from the surrounding ground via a heat carrier fluid that circulates between the borehole and the heat pump. An Important feature associated with design parameters and system performance is the local thermal resistances between the heat carrier flow channels in the borehole and the surrounding ground. This paper deals with the in-situ experimental determination of the effective thermal properties of the ground. The recorded thermal responses together with the line-source theory are used to determine the thermal conductivity and thermal diffusivity, and the steady-state borehole thermal resistance. In addition, this paper compares the experimental borehole resistance with the results from the different empirical and theoretical relations to evaluate this resistance. Further, the performance simulation of a GHP system with vertical borehole heat exchangers was conducted to analyze the effect of the borehole thermal resistance on the system performance.

A ground-loop heat exchanger for the ground source heat pump system is the core equipment determining the thermal performance and initial cost of the system. The size and performance of the heat exchanger is highly dependent on the ground thermal properties - the ground effective thermal conductivity, the borehole thermal resistance and the undisturbed ground temperature. Nowadays, precast concrete piles using steel reinforced precast concrete piles - energy piles - are used to reduce the installing cost of the ground-loop heat exchanger. We were carried out some tests to investigate the effects of some parameters such as borehole length, grouting materials and U-tube configuration of the energy piles. 4 concrete piles, each measuring $250mm{\sim}400mm$ in diameter and approx. 10m in length, and rigged with single spiral and 3 U-tube loop of $16mm{\times}2.3mm$ PB piping. The thermal response tests were conducted using a testing device for 4-different ground-loop heat exchangers. During the heating period, the energy piles absorb the heat of 0.89kW to 1.37kW.

We compared relative importance of thermal conductivity and initial ground temperature in designing borehole heat exchanger network and also we test accuracy of ground temperature estimation in thermal response test using a proven 3-D T-H modeler. The effect of error in estimating ground temperature on calculated total length of borehole heat exchanger was more than 3 times larger than the case of thermal conductivity in maximum 20% error range. Considering 10% of error in estimating thermal conductivity is generally acceptable, we have to define the initial ground temperature within 5% confidence level. Utilizing the mean annual ground surface temperature and the geothermal gradient map compiled so far can be a economic way of estimating ground temperature with some caution. When performing thermal response test for estimating ground temperature as well as measuring thermal conductivity, minimum 100 minutes of ambient circulation is required, which should be even more in case of very cold and hot seasons.

A ground loop heat exchanger in a ground source heat pump system is an important unit that determines the thermal performance of a system and its initial cost. A proper design requires certain site specific parameters, most importantly the ground effective thermal conductivity, the borehole thermal resistance and the undisturbed ground temperature. This study was performed to investigate the effect of some parameters such as borehole lengths, various grouting materials and U tube configurations on ground effective thermal conductivity and borehole thermal resistance. In this study, thermal response tests were conducted using a testing device to 9 different ground loop heat exchangers. From the experimental results, the length of ground loop heat exchanger affects to the effective thermal conductivity. The results of this experiment shows that higher thermal conductivity of grouting materials leads to the increase effective thermal conductivity from 22 to 32%. Also, mounting spacers have increased by 14%.

Knowledge of ground thermal properties is most important for the proper design of large BHE(borehole heat exchanger) systems. Thermal response tests with mobile measurement devices were first introduced in Sweden and USA in 1995. Thermal response tests have so far been used primarily for in insitu determination of design data for BHE systems, but also for evaluation of grout material, heat exchanger types and ground water effects. The main purpose has been to determine insitu values of effective ground thermal conductivity, including the effect of ground-water flow and natural convection in the boreholes. Test rig is set up on a small trailer, and contains a circulation pump, a heater, temperature sensors and a data logger for recording the temperature data. A constant heat power is injected into the borehole through the pipe system of test rig and the resulting temperature change in the borehole is recorded. The recorded temperature data are analysed with a line-source model, which gives the effective insitu values of rock thermal conductivity and borehole thermal resistance.

현재 지열 열펌프 시스템에 수직밀폐형 지중열교환기가 가장 많이 적용되고 있으며, 수직밀폐형 지중열교환기의 성능에 영향을 미치는 주요 인자로는 지중 열전도율(k)과 보어홀 전열저항($R_b$)이 있다. 본 연구에서는 현장에서 측정된 열응답시험 데이터를 이용하여 보어홀 전열저항을 계산하였으며 지중열교환기 개별 설계인자들(순환수유량, 파이프 수, 그라우팅재)이 보어홀 전열저항에 미치는 영향을 분석하였다. 또한 도출된 그라우팅 열저항은 문헌에 제시된 다양한 상관식과 비교 분석하였다. 시험데이터를 통해 본 시험에서의 지중열교환기 보어홀 전열저항은 0.1303 W/m.K로 나타났으며, 보어홀 전열저항에서 그라우트 열저항이 66.6 %, 파이프 열저항이 31.5 %, 순환수 대류열저항이 1.9 %를 차지하여 그라우트가 보어홀 열전달에 가장 큰 영향을 미치는 인자임을 확인하였다. 또한 각 설계인자의 설계변수가 보어홀 전열저항에 미치는 영향을 분석한 결과 실리카샌드를 혼합하여 그라우트 열전도율를 높이는 방법이 파이프 수 증가나 순환수 유량증가보다 열전달 증진에 더 효과적임을 알 수 있었다.

Accurate information on the ground surface temperature is essential for design of a borehole heat exchanger and thus ensuring the performance of a ground source heat pump system along with knowledge on thermal diffusivity and conductivity of ground. In this study we analyzed the shallow subsurface temperature monitoring data of 58 Korea Meteorological Administration synoptic stations. As a result, we compiled mean annual ground surface temperature distribution map using multiple regression analysis of the monitoring data.

Knowledge of ground thermal properties is most important for the proper design of large scale BHE(borehole heat exchanger) systems. The type, pipe size and thermal performance of the BHE is highly dependent on the ground source heatpump system-efficiency and instruction cost. Thermal response tests with mobile measurement devices were developed primarily for insitu determination of design data for large diameter BHE for triple-U spacer apply. The main purpose has been to determine insitu values of effective ground thermal conductivity and thermal resistance, including the effect of ground-water flow and natural convection in the boreholes. The test rig is set up on a some trailer, and contains a circulation pump, a inline heater, temperature sensors, flow meter, power analysis meter and a data logger for recording the temperature, fluid flow data. A constant heat power is injected into the borehole through the tripl-U pipes system of test rig and the resulting temperature change in the borehole is recorded. The recorded temperature data are analysed with a line-source model, which gives the effective insitu values of rock thermal conductivity and borehole thermal resistance of large diameter BHE for spacer apply.

We have installed the borehole seismic recording system at Hyodongri in eastern part of Kyungsan Basin, which has the advantages of reduction in noise by human activities and distorting effects of near-surface rocks. Here we describe briefly the borehole seismic station and recording system. And we analyse the characteistics of back ground the station obtained from borehole sensors. The back ground noise level in time domain is about 50~100$\mu$cm/sec. The average curve of noise spectrum is lower than NHNM(New High Noise Model)of GSN(Global Seismic Network)operated by USGS. The results could be useful prior information for study on earthquake records observed at Hydongri station.
