DESCRIPTION
Problem Statement:
"The current HVAC systems create a lot of greenhouse gasses which contribute to global warming and current GCHE systems take up too much space.“
Our Solution:
"The current HVAC systems create a lot of greenhouse gasses which contribute to global warming and current GCHE systems take up too much space.“
Our Solution:
As we believe that the main issue faced by GCHE systems is their large size we have designed a system that minimizes its footprint in terms of horizontal area. This is achieved by arranging the pipes in a vertical configuration and placing them below the HEC, going deeper instead of wider.
These vertical pipes would lead into a heat exchange chamber where the heat gained underground would be stored and exchanged with another set of air pipes looped around HEC that would deliver air to the house.
Cost:
$100 (For the prototype)
Challenges:
-Time constraints.
-Group member availability.
Important Details:
-The solar panel was not installed for the prototype.
