Ground Loop DesignTM Premier 2010 Edition is a versatile program that assists the trained geothermal HVAC designer/engineer in sizing equipment, determining the appropriate lengths of bore or pipe required for commercial and residential vertical, horizontal, surface water projects, optimizing the piping configuration for balanced flow and optimal heat transfer and calculating the annual and lifetime energy/operating/emissions costs associated with the design.
The modular program enhances design productivity and permits flexibility in the designing process and customization based on designer preferences. In addition, the program has an English/metric conversion engine and is available in many languages, providing applicability to the widest range of equipment and customers.
