Abstract
A geothermal snow melting system consists of hydronic tubes embedded at critic.al points of roads, highways and bridges. A fluid can be heated by using a ground source heat pump system (GSHP) and circulated through the embedded pipes to prevent freezing conditions on the surface. The goal of this paper is to find practical techniques to de crease the operation time of heat pumps to save en ergy. This paper consists of a 2D parametric simu lation of a typical bridge, considering the weather of Tehran.This imulation contains different paramet ric. inputs, like physical propert ies and geographical conditions.One important c.haracterist ic. of this pa per is the c.onsideration of different layers and ma terials in the bridge.
