Abstract

Provided here are a final thermal conductivity test report, a drilling log, and a heat rejection log from Carbondale, CO. Also attached is a report made before drilling, which contains predictions on the hydrogeologic conditions of the drill site. The forty-eight (48.9) hour in-situ thermal conductivity test was performed on the 28th through the 30th, of November 2023. The test was performed at the borehole drilled on November 16th through the 20th, at the 3rd Street Center at 520 S. 3rd, Street in Carbondale, Colorado. Testing was done with a certified Ewbank portable test unit.

Community Geothermal: Borefield Design, Thermal Conductivity, and Subsurface Modeling Data - Chicago, IL

Dataset Baser, Tugce ; Jello, Josiane ; Nieto, Katherine ; ...

This dataset encompasses the development of a geothermal energy system for the West Woodlawn neighborhood in Chicago, Illinois. This project is part of a broader initiative to design and deploy geothermal heating and cooling systems at a community scale. The dataset includes thermal conductivity test results, calculations for borehole sizing based on the American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air-Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE) method, as well as simulated thermal loads based on actual energy usage from individual buildings. Also provided here are files used for numerical modeling via COMSOL Multiphysics to simulate borefield design and subsurface thermal behavior. Two manuscripts aremore »« less
Community Resilience through Low-Temperature Geothermal Reservoir Thermal Energy Storage

Dataset Nico, Peter ; Zhang, Yingqi ; Liu, Xiaobing ; ...

Submitted data include simulations related to underground thermal battery (UTB) simulations described in Modeling and efficiency study of large scale underground thermal battery deployment, presented at GRC, October 2021. The UTB is comprised of a tank of water, a helical heat exchanger in the center of tank and connected to a water source heat pump, and a phase change material (PCM). Compared to a conventional VBGHE, the UTB is designed to be installed at a much shallower depth, therefore, with a cheaper cost. In addition, the GSHP efficiency is improved due to natural convection of water and additional load capacitymore »« less
Community Geothermal: Soil Conductivity, Borehole Design, Energy Models, and Load Data for a Residential System Development - Hinesburg, VT

Dataset Jogineedi, Rohit ; Estep, Greg ; Mitchell, Matt ; ...

This dataset contains materials from the Coalition for Community-Supported Affordable Geothermal Energy Systems (C2SAGES) project, which evaluated the techno-economic feasibility of a community geothermal system for a residential development in Hinesburg, VT. The dataset includes detailed soil conductivity test reports, energy models, borehole design reports, hourly energy loads for heating, cooling, and hot water, and design layouts. EnergyPlus was used to model building energy loads, and Modelica software was applied for geothermal loop sizing based on these loads and soil conductivity results. Python scripts for network design further refined the models. Key files include PDF reports on borehole design (withmore »« less
Community Geothermal: Mechanical, Electrical, and Plumbing Design Report and Drawings - Wallingford, CT

Dataset Donahue, Ian

Included here are the mechanical, electrical, and plumbing design report and drawings for the proposed community geothermal system at an affordable housing complex in Wallingford, Connecticut. The report and drawings were developed by LN Consulting, in partnership with the University of Connecticut, which completed the energy modeling that formed the basis of the design work. The drawings can be used as a basis for a Request for Proposals to procure entities to complete construction-ready design documents.
Integrated Geothermal-CO2 Storage Reservoirs: FY1 Final Report

Dataset Buscheck, Thomas A.

The purpose of phase 1 is to determine the feasibility of integrating geologic CO2 storage (GCS) with geothermal energy production. Phase 1 includes reservoir analyses to determine injector/producer well schemes that balance the generation of economically useful flow rates at the producers with the need to manage reservoir overpressure to reduce the risks associated with overpressure, such as induced seismicity and CO2 leakage to overlying aquifers. This submittal contains input and output files of the reservoir model analyses. A reservoir-model "index-html" file was sent in a previous submittal to organize the reservoir-model input and output files according to sections ofmore »« less
