摘要
This study developed a new method for experimentally measuring and estimating multilayer soil thermo-physical properties. It also tested how multi-layered soil influences an earth-air heat exchanger (EAHE) system in Gödöllő, Hungary. Thus, this research has introduced these combination characteristics that increase EAHE system performance by properly estimating soil multi-layer properties and thermal gradients and their thermal performance effects. New laboratory and theoretical methods can evaluate multilayer soil thermal and physical properties depending on moisture content and density. The first layer had the lowest soil moisture content (6.10 %), the fifth layer had the highest (12.8 %), and the mixed layer had the middle value (9.12 %). The densities of these soil types ranged from 930.49 to 1184.03 kg/m3. When installing the EAHE system, the second layer is better for cooling purposes. Third-layer soil pipe air is 3.74 % hotter than second-layer air. Mixed soil heats and cools moderately. It is 1.74 % hotter and 2 % colder than the second and third layers of soil, respectively. © 2024
