摘要

Medium-deep ground source heat pumps are an important low-carbon heating technology. This study proposes a hybrid thermal conductivity model based on kilometer-scale formation variations. Well logging at a factory site in Shenyang, China, revealed that the upper 0–750 m is Cenozoic strata with higher porosity and argillaceous content, while the underlying Archean formation consists of dense, highly conductive rocks. Permeability is low in deep formations, indicating few aquifers. Borehole No.02, with the lowest porosity and argillaceous content, shows the highest thermal conductivity (2.64 W/(m·K)). Overall, the results highlight the strong influence of geological properties on the thermal performance of medium-deep borehole heat exchangers.
