Geothermal heat pump system
Write two paragraphs, each paraphrased from the attached source text on the geothermal heat pump system. This is the same technology you read about for Quiz 3, but this text has extra information in it. Your assignment is to write, in this order,
- A Parts Analysis paragraph that describes all the components used in a geothermal heat pump system
- A Requirements and Conditions paragraph that explain the factors affecting the function of a geothermal heat pump system, its components, and its processes.
While you may wish to use Internet sources to assist you in completing the assignment, your paragraphs must be based entirely on the source text and must only contain information found in that text. There is no need to document additional source material since you won’t be using or referencing it directly.
