What is a god way to simulate individual heat extraction rates? #267

What is a god way to simulate individual heat extraction rates, from networks of boreholes with series, parallel, and mixed connections between the boreholes?
As example, applying two different heat extraction rates for two parallell lines with boreholes, each with five boreholes in serie.

For clarification, in your example, are the two lines of boreholes connected to the same system (i.e. they have the same inlet temperatures)?

Do you specifically need to calculate the individual heat extraction rates, or simply to simulate the system?

Q1: Two systems if the definition of a system is "not the same inlet temperature". Q2: simply simulate the two systems with 5 boreholes in each.

This will be addressed in #264.
