Course Description
The vast majority of ground source heat pump systems use vertical boreholes, instead of horizontal trenches. Following up on SUNCAM course 029 Trench Design for Ground Source Heat Pumps, and course 045 Geothermal Heat Pumps for Small Buildings is this latest course on boreholes. Large commercial geo projects involving engineering design, frequently find the borehole alternate superior to trenching, where limited acreage is available for larger building loads. In the language of both the well driller and the design professional, Geothermal Borehole course 091 addresses the many facets of ground heat exchange: Rock thermal conductivity, grout installation sequence & grout thermal conductivity, software design programs, total length formula, heat fusion, manifold layout, all with site plans, web references and photos.

Uncover the technology being employed on many of the new building projects. Become informed on the latest techniques and standards used to harvest renewable energy from beneath our feet.

4 out of 54 out of 54 out of 54 out of 54 out of 5 Good Course, 8.31.2010

The course was very informative, easy to comprehend, and will be helpful for future projects. Provides good information on borehole thermal conductivity, drilling technique, tubing installation and grouting. These courses are a great way to obtain education credits necessary for PE license requirements.
