Geothermal probe with heat pipe principle

In shallow geothermal energy generation the thermal energy stored under the earth–s surface is used for heating purposes.

• demonstration of the operation of a geothermal probe with heat pipe principle
• heat pipe made of glass with transparent temperature control jacket
• water as a working medium for heat dissipation in the heat exchanger
• supply of the working medium via the lab network or via water chiller to ensure a maximum water temperature of 16°C
• simulation of the energy balance of a heat pump in the software
• refrigerant R1233zd, GWP: 4
• software for data acquisition via USB under Windows 11
