G-Function Library for Modeling Vertical Bore Ground Heat Exchanger

Publicly accessible License 

This library contains g-functions (thermal response functions) for standard, regularly spaced vertical borehole ground heat exchangers. In total, it contains 34, 321 configurations. To permit interpolation, each configuration has g-functions for heights of 24, 48, 96, 192, and 384 m. All the g-functions were calculated with burial depths of 2m, and borehole diameters of 15 to 17.5 cm, depending on height. In configurations with uniform spacing, the spacing between the boreholes is set to 5m, though it can be scaled to other horizontal spacings.
