Thermal behaviour of borefields (part 1): Borehole thermal resistance
In order to design feasible and well-functioning geothermal borefields, it is important to understand the thermal behaviour of the system. In this article, we will look at the effective borehole thermal resistance as a means to model the short-term thermal behaviour of borefields.

Passive and active cooling for an office building
Combining passive and active cooling in your geothermal borefield allows you to take advantage of the best of both worlds. On the one hand, you can benefit from highly sustainable and efficient passive (or free) cooling, while on the other, you can reduce investment costs through an optimised active cooling design. This article demonstrates how you can use GHEtool to implement this intelligent combination!

Pressure drop and pump energy in GHEtool Cloud
For an efficient borefield design, you have to pay close attention to both the pressure drop and the pump energy consumption. In this article, we will explore the latest additions to GHEtool Cloud to help you with the hydraulic design of your borefield.
- Methods
Combined active cooling and passive cooling (part 1)
With borefields, you can have passive cooling, but sizing your borefield this way is rather expensive. Therefore, the option to use active cooling is sometimes proposed to reduce the investment cost. However, this increases electricity consumption compared to passive cooling. This article investigates whether and how it is possible to design a borefield for active cooling while maximising the use of passive cooling.

The importance of pressure drop in borefield design
Pressure drop is an important but often overlooked parameter in the hydraulic design of borefields. In this article, we explore what pressure drop is, what factors contribute to it, and why it is crucial to consider this parameter when designing a borefield.

Ground properties for borefield design
Accurate borefield sizing relies heavily on having the correct ground properties. Since geothermal energy systems work by exchanging energy with the ground, obtaining precise ground data is essential for a well-designed system. In this article, we explore the key ground parameters needed for calculations in GHEtool Cloud.

Een EED-project invoeren in GHEtool Cloud
Hoe vergelijk je een berekening met Earth Energy Designer (EED) met een berekening met GHEtool Cloud? Beide tools hebben verschillende modellen en gebruiken iets andere importparameters. In dit artikel laten we zien hoe je een EED-project kunt converteren naar een project in GHEtool Cloud en bespreken we de belangrijkste verschillen die je kunt verwachten tussen de twee tools.

Borefield quadrants
Insight is crucial for an accurate borefield design. Borefields are inherently complex due to numerous design parameters and uncertainties. In this article, we introduce the concept of borefield quadrants— a framework that can help you analyse your borefield design and better understand our upcoming articles on borefield physics.

How to design with tilted boreholes?
When there is limited space to drill a borefield, it can be beneficial to design your borefields with certain tilted boreholes. GHEtool Cloud is one of the few borefield software solutions that allow you to design your borefields with tilted boreholes, and in this article, we go into detail about the definitions used when entering your borefield design into the tool.
