Demand for renewable energy sources has increased significantly during the past 15-20 years. Due to this demand, one positive scenario has occurred as there has been a decrease in the use of fossil fuels. Among various usages of the fuels, a significant amount of energy is being used in heating and cooling for commercial, domestic houses, etc. Traditional air conditioning systems use a lot of energy and are particularly inefficient in tropical countries. Earth-air heat exchanger (EAHE) systems can help to reduce the air conditioning demand while also promoting the development of renewable energy. This paper focuses on a review of previous research on this notion for system installation done by earlier researchers. Researchers working on efficient heating and cooling for human comfort will benefit from this review article. The researchers working on EAHE for heating and cooling will benefit from this review paper because it will give them the basic knowledge they need to begin their experimental work.
在过去的 15-20 年中，对可再生能源的需求显著增加。由于这种需求，出现了一个积极的情况，即化石燃料的使用减少了。在燃料的各种用途中，商业和住宅等领域的供暖和制冷消耗了大量能源。传统的空调系统消耗大量能源，在热带国家效率特别低。地-气换热器（EAHE）系统有助于减少空调需求，同时也促进可再生能源的发展。本文重点回顾了早期研究人员在系统安装方面对此概念的研究。研究人员将从这篇综述文章中受益，这些研究人员致力于提高空调系统的效率，以实现人类的舒适感。研究 EAHE 用于供暖和制冷的研究人员也将从这篇综述论文中受益，因为它将为他们提供开展实验工作所需的基础知识。
