Cooling-dominated institutional buildings served by ground-source heat pump (GSHP) systems generally reject more heat to a closed ground-loop heat exchanger (GLHE) than they extract over the annual cycle. This unbalance may result in a significantly larger GLHE than would be required for a system with annually balanced heat rejection and extraction. So-called independent temperature and humidity control hybrid GSHP (HGSHP) system can control temperature and humidity separately to reduce system first cost an...
