Hello guys,
i wondered about the parametrization of my BHE in FEFLOW. I have to set:
- inlet temperature (~20°C)
- heat input rate (~7*10^8 )
- temp difference (3°C)
- power (?)
but i dont know which value i have to put in. I was looking for referee values in literature (values in braces), but i am not sure whether they´re reasonable or not. Besides i dont know the meaning of the parameters 100%. Do i set the temperature i gather from the soil, or the temperature after passing through the heat pump for inlet temperature? What i have to set für the temp difference? And what für power? I even specify my abstraction capacity in heat input rate, doesn´t i?
I hope you can help me.
Kind regards, Michael
Edit: my calculated heat input rate is one decimal power smaller than in literature. Is it good anyway? My BHE is only 38m big, maybe thats the reason for that?
