Thus, a long-time test was conducted on a running GWHP system for the heating season from December 2011 to March 2012. The analysis of the testing data indicates that the average heat-pump coefficient of performance （COP） and the COP of the system （COPs） are 4.27 and 2.59. The low value and large fluctuation in the range of COP are found to be caused by the heat transfixion in the aquifer and the bypass in the circulation loop. Therefore, some suggestions are proposed to improve the performance for GWHPs in the cold climate region in China.展开更多

In this study, soil temperature and water content were measured when groundwater tables reached 10 cm, 30 cm, and 60 cm depths （Experiment I, II, and III） by using sensors embedded at depths of 5 cm, 10 cm, 20 cm, and 30 cm for 5 days. Soil thermal properties were analyzed based on the experimental data using the simplified de Vries model. Results show that soil water content and temperature have fluctuations that coincide with the 24 h diurnal cycle, and the amplitude of these fluctuations decreased with the increase in groundwater table depth. The amplitude of soil water content at 5 cm depth decreased from 0.025 m^3·m^-3 in Experiment II to 0.01 m^3·m^-3 in Experiment III. Moreover, it should be noted that the soil temperature in Experiment III gradually went up with the lowest value increasing from 26.0℃ to 28.8℃. By contrast, the trends were not evident in Experiments I and II. Results indicate that shallow groundwater has a ＂cooling＂ effect on soil in the capillary zone. In addition, calculated values of thermal conductivity and heat capacity declined with the increasing depth of the groundwater table, which is consistent with experimental results. The thermal conductivity was stable at a value of 2.3 W.cm^-1·K^-1 in Experiment I. The average values of thermal conductivity at different soil depths in Experiment II were 1.82 W.cm^-1·K^-1, 2.15 W.cm^-1·K^-1, and 2.21 W. cm^-1·K^-1, which were always higher than that in Experiment III.展开更多

This study evaluates the spatial variability of soil proper- ties after irrigation with wastewater and freshwater. Geostatistical techniques were used to identify the variability of soil properties at the different sites. A set of physical and chemical soil properties were measured including total nitrogen （TN）, total phosphorus （TP）, organic matter （OM） and soil moisture. The TN concen- tration levels varied from 567 to 700 mg. kg-1, while OC levels ranged from 7.3 to 16.3 mg.kg-1 in wastewater- irrigated zones. The concentration levels of TP were between 371.53 and 402.88 mg-kg-1 for the wastewater- irrigated sites. Wastewater irrigation resulted in higher TN, TP and OM concentrations by 18.4%, 8% and 25%, respectively. The highest TN and OM occurred along the wastewater trunk. It was also observed that nitrogen concentrations correlate with the soil＇s organic matter. The increase of salinity may be associated with the increase of pH, which might suggest that a reduction of pH will be beneficial for plant growth due to the decrease of salinity. The average concentrations of nitrogen in topsoil were higher than those in subsurface soils in irrigated areas. Such differences of the N profile might be due to variations in organic matter content and microbial populations. Consistent with TN and OM, soil C：N decreased significantly with an increase of depth. This phenomenon possibly reflects a greater degree of breakdown and the older age of humus stored in the deeper soil layers. The analysis of pH levels at different depths for the three sites showed that pH values for wastewater irrigation were slightly lower than the controlled sites at the same depths.展开更多
