Environmental Impact Calculations for Geothermal DDU system on WVU Campus

Description

This dataset contains all the inputs used and output produced from Matlab for the environmental analysis of an improved hybrid geothermal district heating and cooling (GDHC) system with a heat pump, without a heat pump, and for a hot water GDHC. Detailed descriptions of the contents of this repository are provided below.
