Experimental performance data are presented for the well, pebble-bed, and surface-tank configurations of ground-coupling. Results are analyzed in terms of hourly, daily, and seasonal operating characteristics. Compared to a conventional air-source heat pump, the ground-coupled systems have higher coefficients of performance and are better able to maintain capacity during ambient extremes.
