Just to put in $0.02. Once you are ready, use the GT1 file (created by Trace700) to import into the GLHEPro software. But here's the catch, I believe the GT1 data is Geothermal loop data, not individual HP data. GLHEPro allows you to input one or the other (Plant or equipment). The GT1 data should be entered in as 'plant' information. Then export an .idf file from GLHEPro to import into the Trace700. Simply said, it is a interative process that saves you time, and gives more accurate results if used correctly.

According to Trace700 help menu, you need to paste the GHLEPro file into the same directory as your Projname.TRC file...name the GHLEPro file the same as your Projname.geo.idf. <-note the "geo.idf". The TRC file will recognize the file and use the data for its pupose when you select "Verticle Bore" make sure it's for the same number of years 1yr or 10yr. 10yrs is the time for the ground to become stable with Qin and Qout accoridng to GHLEPro.

Yes, Mr. Fett, It is definitely, as you said "loop data".

That's a pretty nice new feature!
You are correct. Trace has the ability to import vertical bore files exported from GLHEpro.
Pretty advanced models at that point. So make sure you got all the adequate data or all this extra work may not increase any accuracy.
