Earth-Air Heat Exchangers provide Thermal Comfort for Buildings

Abstract

The importance of geothermal energy is increasing day by day by to improve the productivity and Implementation of geothermal energy we introduce the Earth-air heat exchanger based on buried pipe system that uses geothermal energy. Among all renewable energy, geothermal energy has been widely adapted as heat sunk in summer and heat source in winter due to its easy access and low impact to environment. Also, almost constant temperature at certain depth throughout the year which is lower and higher than ambient temperature in summer and winter, respectively. The Earth-air heat exchanger is a series of soil pipes and which is buried in certain depth to get the cooling effect by using geothermal energy this is very cost effective as compared to air conditioners and heater and easy to install and it is one time investment and there is very low maintenance cost this can be installed into your backyard, courtyard or near the building this gives the temperature drop according to atmospheric condition.
