Abstract :
This paper presents the results of the ground temperature monitoring with temperature sensor circuits based on LM35 for a heat pump system with underfloor heating. It is presented a procedure to estimate the ground loop of the heat pump, based on ground temperature measurements. The ground temperature monitoring results demonstrates the validity of the ground loop estimation. The ground temperature monitoring results are based on data acquired from -1.8 to zero meters in the period September 2008 April 2009 and the ground temperature variations during heat pump working cycle.
