Modelling
Based on geological site data and the design parameters of a planned or existing geothermal system, we use simulation software to assess how the ground conditions will be changed by the extraction and introduction of heat over time. In doing so, we use both analytical and semi-numerical and numerical simulation tools. The model can be used to verify the thermal potential of systems and to obtain findings as the basis for a design that will deliver optimum results over the long term.
