Enhancing nocturnal microclimate in Tunisian greenhouses: Experimental study on integrating an innovative conic helicoidal heat exchanger with a geothermal heat pump system
Ensuring an optimal nocturnal microclimate within greenhouses is essential for successful crop cultivation. In regions like Tunisia, characterized by arid and semi-arid climates, managing temperature and humidity during the night, particularly in cold winter months, is challenging and often requires external heating sources. This study aims to investigate the use of geothermal energy as a sustainable solution for greenhouse heating, focusing on an innovative helicoidal geothermal system to maintain ideal nocturnal conditions.
The primary objective of this research is to evaluate the effectiveness of the helicoidal geothermal system in achieving optimal temperature and humidity levels for plant growth during the night. Conducted at the Research and Technology Centre of Energy in Tunisia, the experimental investigation involved a new ground heat exchanger coupled with a heat pump system.
The experimental setup consisted of two greenhouses: one serving as a control and the other equipped with two Conic Helicoidal Ground Heat Exchangers (CHGHE) and a Ground-Source Heat Pump (GSHP) system, which includes both underground and suspended heat exchangers. The results demonstrated that the geothermal system, operating at an optimal flow rate of 0.6 kg/s, successfully maintained the nocturnal comfort temperature required for plant growth. The coefficients of performance for the geothermal heat pump () and the overall system () were calculated to be 3.12 and 2.7, respectively.
These findings underscore the potential of near-surface geothermal energy, utilizing a geothermal heat pump, to efficiently heat greenhouses under the climatic conditions of Tunisia. This approach not only supports sustainable agricultural practices but also offers significant energy efficiency and cost-saving benefits.
期刊介绍:
Geothermics is an international journal devoted to the research and development of geothermal energy.
