Abstract :
The Holocene Quaternary pore confined aquifer at Hankou district; Wuhan city is suitable for operation of groundwater heat pump (GWHP). At the basis of the actual hydro-geological conditions and the appropriate assumptions, Flow Heat Software is used to analysis well spacing of this aquifer by means of water and thermal simulation method. The most appropriate well spacing is 33 ~ 60 m.
