A new analytical model for transient heat transfer modeling of geothermal monotube heat exchangers

Résumé

In this study, we present a new analytical model for the analysis of transient heat transfer (the model is solved after Laplace transformation) in geothermal monotube heat exchangers (GHE). The model accounts for various factors, including the heat exchanger's geometric parameters, the nature of the fluid (air and water), flow characteristics (laminar and turbulent), and heat transfer boundary conditions. Initially, the model's performance is validated by comparing its results with those obtained from computational fluid dynamics simulations using OpenFOAM. This validation process ensures the reliability and accuracy of the model. Additionally, an analysis of the heat transfer mechanisms and key modeling parameters identified from the comparison is provided. In the subsequent section, the analysis is extended by comparing the proposed model to four existing analytical models available in the literature. These reference models employ distinct approaches to simulate heat transfer to the ground. By examining a range of cases, the performance of the model is systematically evaluated against these conventional methods. This work closes by an analysis of the analytical models and the impact on the accuracy of the results highlighting the advantages of the proposed method in geothermal applications.
