Ground Coupled Heat Pumps (GCHP) are efficient heating systems which mainly rely on the correct design of their ground heat exchangers for attaining the best performance. Such design process is often based on a ground response model which involves the solution of the transient conduction equation. A successful calculation technique for ground...

In the framework of energy saving and environmental protection, the role of the energy consumption in buildings is crucial. For existing buildings and especially for public ones, it is mandatory to correctly select and realize suitable retrofitting interventions to reduce costs and increase the efficiency. In fact, innovative solutions for both...
