## Abstract
Ground source cooling system (GSCS) is promising technology to serve cooling demands of buildings. This study presents a development of an open-loop GSCS for space air conditioning at Hasanuddin University Gowa campus. Experimental study was carried-out by pumping water from well of 57 m depth and flowing the water over a heat exchanger to cool refrigerant of air conditioning (AC) unit. The performance of AC unit was investigated under actual operation with various water flowrates. The temperatures of inlet and outlet water in the heat exchanger were also measured. The system operated from 11:00 until 18:00 o’clock local time with 3 (three) flowrates such as 3.6; 6.5 and 14.3 L/min respectively. In the low flowrate, the temperature of outlet water is approximately 37 °C. However, the compressor power is also increase significantly. The coefficient of performances (COPs) of the system in average are 2.9 in the low flowrate and 3.4 in the high flowrate. Also. the result shows that the utilization of GSCS is appropriated for cooling buildings in the hot climate like Indonesia.
