Buildings.Fluid.Geothermal.ZonedBorefields.Validation
Validation models for zoned geothermal energy storage
Information
This package contains validation models for the classes in Buildings.Fluid.Geothermal.ZonedBorefields.
Note that most validation models contain simple input data which may not be realistic, but for which the correct output can be obtained through an analytic solution. The examples plot various outputs, which have been verified against these solutions. These model outputs are stored as reference data and used for continuous validation whenever models in the library change.

Buildings.Fluid.Geothermal.ZonedBorefields.Validation.SteadyStateBoreholeDynamics
Description
Information
This validation cases tests the independent operation of borefield zones for the borefield configured in Buildings.Fluid.Geothermal.ZonedBorefields.Data.Configuration.Validation.
The model assumes no dynamics in the boreholes. The heating rate to a zone is constant (when activated). The duration of heat injection into each zone is a multiple of 1 month, with alternating signals to each zone to obtain all possible combinations of activated and deactivated zones.
