Abstract The paper presents the results of numerical simulation thermal response test (TRT) and experiment TRT in Johan Paul second Centre “ Have No Fear! ” Cracow. aim study is to determine compare values effective conductivity rocks obtained with from TRT. are shown as graphs temperature variation time on inlet outlet borehole heat exchanger (BHE) drawings distribution. Borehole constructed a single u-tube at depth 180 m. In was included geological profile rock mass associated changes...
The paper deals with the possible use of existing oil wells for geothermal energy production. A mathematical model, describing process exploitation a borehole heat exchanger, has been worked out. It was used determining efficiency, employing main parameter, i.e., flow produced energy. results simulation exchanger operation in deep conditions Iwonicz Zdrój field’s depleted deposits (Polish Carpathians) are presented. considerable part Carpathian region—a cradle world’s industry—are to be...
Research on borehole heat exchangers is described the development of a method for determination, based thermal response tests, effective conductivity and resistivity exchangers. This advance important, because underground energy storage increasingly consists systems with large number exchangers, their conductivities resistivities are significant parameters in performance system (whether it contains single or field boreholes). Borehole storages provide particularly beneficial using ground as...

Geothermal energy can be useful after extraction from geothermal wells, borehole heat exchangers and/or natural sources. Types of boreholes are wells (for water production and injection) exchange with the ground without mass transfer). The purpose is to harvest present in aquifer. They often involve a pumping chamber. injection used for injecting back produced into aquifer, having harvested contained within. paper presents parameters Poland (geothermal exchangers). definitions boreholes,...
Investigating the constructions of borehole heat exchangers with high efficiency (unit transfer between carrier and ground) is important. One means to improve use most efficient construction exchanger. The paper describes research on exchangers’ thermal efficiency, which mainly characterized by parameters obtained from a response test: effective conductivity resistivity. Laboratory Geoenergetics in Poland were studied. Based test interpretation empirical equations, one proprietary,...
This work concerns borehole heat exchangers and their testing using apparatus for thermal response tests. In the theoretical part of article, an equation was derived from known flow, on which interpretation test based. The practical presents results several measurements taken in AGH Laboratory Geoenergetics. They were aimed at examining potential exchange capacity between carrier rock mass. Measurement form graphs are shown relation to examined, briefly described wells. Result analysis made...
The relation between rotation speed, air pressure and the velocity of air-rotary drilling using down hole method is determined in an empirical manner. For study, measurements are obtained for combinations aforementioned parameters during fieldwork installation borehole heat exchangers near Lublin, Poland. tests consider three drill bit diameters—110, 127 140 mm; rotational speeds—20, 40 60 1/min; pressures—16, 20 24 bar. need 100 m deep wells. lithology consists mainly loess clays to m, sand...
