AI Technical Summary
Shallow underground pipe systems need to maintain a balance in heat exchange, but are limited by regional characteristics and building functional characteristics, resulting in low system operating efficiency and high energy consumption.
By employing a combination of vertical buried boreholes, heat pump units, terminal devices, finned heat exchangers, circulating water pumps, and multiple switching valves, the heat pump units and finned heat exchangers work together to achieve precise regulation of heat exchange and maintain soil temperature balance.
It improves heat balance efficiency, reduces energy consumption, and meets the requirements of dual-carbon goals.
