Dear colleagues,



I am teaching a new seminar this spring where we will be digging into more advanced modeling features such as Trombe walls, solar chimneys and ground heat transfer. I cannot wait :).



Regarding ground heat transfer, I know that there are a variety of models available within EnergyPlus from Slab to FC. I wonder if some of you could point me to good best practice guidelines and papers that compare these models. I am particular keen on modeling spaces that are half buried (think Frank Lloyd Wright's Solar Hemicycle).



Thank you for your help,



Christoph
