  • Geothermal energy transfer system
    Patent number: 9816732
    Abstract: An energy transfer unit for a geothermal system includes an outer housing. A heat exchanger is located within the housing. An inlet pipe extends from the housing to the heat exchanger to convey heat transfer fluid to the heat exchanger and an outlet pipe extends from the housing to the heat exchanger to convey heat transfer fluid from the heat exchanger.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: September 29, 2014
    Date of Patent: November 14, 2017
    Assignee: Heat-Line Corporation
    Inventors: Lorne R. Heise, Matthew J. H. Roberts, Fraser F. Newton, David S. Lamb

  • Control for Geothermal Heating System
    Publication number: 20120211195
    Abstract: A geothermal energy transfer system has a heat transfer loop associated with a heat pump and a heat absorption loop to circulate fluid through an energy source, such as the ground or body of water. The loops are connected through a reservoir and each loop has a circulating pump to circulate fluid through respective loops. The flow rates of the pumps are selected to optimise energy transfer in each loops and differences in the flow rates are absorbed in the reservoir.
