Abstract

PILESIM is a user-friendly programme devised for the thermal simulation of heat exchanger pile systems. A heat exchanger pile system is a system which uses foundation piles for heating and cooling purposes. Borehole heat exchangers may also be simulated with PILESIM. PILESIM is based on the development of simulation tools with the TRNSYS system simulation programme, in which the non-standard TRNVDST component was adapted for the simulation of heat exchanger piles. A short description of the PILESIM programme is presented.
