在以空调为主的气候条件下，一些所谓的“混合式”地源热泵（GCHP）系统已经建成。混合系统同时使用了地面耦合热交换器和冷却塔，从而减少了所需的地面耦合热交换器的数量。虽然这一概念已被证明是可行的，但这种系统的性能尚未得到详细衡量。由于可以通过修改设计和操作实践来显著提高此类系统的性能，因此需要对此类系统进行详细的性能监控。本文描述了一个从洛杉矶波尔克堡的混合式GCHP系统收集性能数据的项目。本文介绍了大约22个月的性能数据，包括两个供暖和制冷季节的部分数据。将显示GCHPs本身的输入能量，以及在冷却模式下被拒绝到地面的能量和在加热模式下从地面提取的能量。 冷却塔中的能量流动以及循环泵和冷却塔的功耗也将得到解决。单位:双引文:研讨会，ASHRAE交易，1998年，第104卷，pt。1A，旧金山

In climates dominated by air conditioning, a few so-called "hybrid" ground-coupled heat pump (GCHP) systems have been built. The hybrid system uses both a ground-coupled heat exchanger and a cooling tower, thereby reducing the amount of ground-coupling heat exchanger necessary. Although this concept has been shown to be feasible, the performance of such a system has not been measured in detail. Since it may be possible to achieve significant performance improvements in such systems by modifying the design and operational practices, detailed performance monitoring of such systems is needed. This paper describes a project that has been undertaken to collect performance data from a hybrid GCHP system at Fort Polk, La. This paper presents performance data for a period of about 22 months, including data from portions of two heating and cooling seasons. The energy input to the GCHPs themselves will be presented, as well as the energy rejected to the ground in the cooling mode and that extracted from the ground in the heating mode. Energy flows in the cooling tower also will be addressed, along with the power consumption of the circulating pumps and the cooling tower.Units: Dual
