The study presents the first application of Connected Linear Network (CLN) package implemented in MODFLOW-USG to an existing Ground-Source Heat Pump (GSHP) system. numerical element was specifically adapted by authors a previous simulate vertical Borehole Exchangers (BHEs) and is here applied for time evaluate heat transfer Milano subsurface induced GSHP evaluation interference between geothermal systems wells important topic, especially densely populated areas, which has scarcely been explored literature. Specifically, aim thermal perturbation possible BHE drinkable water Armi pumping station managed MM S.p.A. simulation results show moderate groundwater perturbation: approximately 3 °C at 100 m downgradient borefield and, furthermore, limited impact (maximum 1 °C) just two station. After years system operation, can extend kilometers, but with variation temperature (lower than °C). Although predicted not critical, real-time monitoring temperatures coupled modeling essential prevent optimize performance.
