Project objective. The development of theoretical base and practical methods of calculation and design of foundations, contained soil heat pumps collectors.

Project background. It is planned to solve the following tasks:

- to develop the calculation approach of temperature fields and streams of heating energy in foundation and soil base (taking into account phase transition of pore liquid);

- to develop the calculation approach of stress-strain state of structures, combining bases, foundations and heat exchangers functions (taking into account phase transition of pore liquid).

Implementation of the project will significantly reduce the consumption of non-renewable sources of energy for heating and cooling and reduce the carbon dioxide emissions.
