Abstract
The main objective of this study is to model variable speed water-to-water heat pumps (VSHP) and to examine the impact of the operation of such devices on ground heat exchanger sizing and energy consumption when they are used in ground-source applications. In the first part of the paper, a complete physics-based steady-state model of a variable-speed water-to-water heat pump is briefly presented. A performance map approach is also used by modifying an existing TRNSYS variable speed heat pump model to provide a minimum speed of operation and a better representation at part load. Simulation results over a heating season on a residential ground source VSHP indicate that the energy coverage (i.e., percentage of annual heat supplied by the heat pump) increases at a faster rate than the effect coverage (i.e., percentage of peak building heat supplied by the heat pump) for a small value of the effect coverage. For example, for effect coverage of 60%, the energy coverage is ∼93%. It is also shown that the normalized length of the ground heat exchanger varies linearly up to effect coverage of 60% where it is equal to 75% of the value encountered for effect coverage of 100%.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
