Geothermal Heating/Cooling Systems

[bucknell06]

Can anyone tell me where to find information on designing Geothermal Heating/Cooling systems?

I wrote a report for the Desert Research Institute in Reno, NV around 1974. They included my report as part of a larger report that they published.

Where are you designing this system for? I've been designing and working with these systems from 5 ton systems to 300 ton systems for 6 years.

http://www.geoexchange.com

is a good place for information. I'm not sure where there is a site that will tell you how to design one. Do you want to do a horizontal/vertical loop field and are you doing a dx or gx system. I can add more info if you have more details.
