Air-to-water heat pump assessment: Part 2 – Exergetic and exergoeconomic analyses

Air Source Heat Pump for Northern Climates Part I: Simulation of Different Heat Pump Cycles

Assessment and Deployment of Ground Source Heat Pump for Air Pollution Reduction in Tehran, Iran

The use of renewable energies, especially in metropolises has led to a reduction in environmental pollution and greater access to clean, renewable and sustainable energy. This paper evaluates the effectiveness of a national plan adopted by the Tehran city council for reducing air pollutions. This plan is designed to increase the share of renewable energies in residential buildings. This study a...

Exergetic, Exergoeconomic and Exergoenvironmental Multi-Objective Genetic Algorithm Optimization of Qeshm Power and Water Cogeneration Plant

In this study, optimization of Qeshm power and water desalting cogeneration plant has been investigated. The objective functions are related to maximizing exergetic efficiency and minimization of exergoeconomic and exergoenvironmental parameters. Also, the integration of RO desalination with the existing plant has been evaluated based on these analyses. This plant includes two MAPNA 25 MW gas t...

Energy and Economic Performance Comparison of Gas Engine and Electric Driven Air-To-Water Heat Pump

Performance Assessment of a Variable Capacity Air Source Heat Pump and a Horizontal Loop Coupled Ground Source Heat Pump System

This study evaluates the performance of air source heat pump (ASHP) and ground source heat pump (GSHP) systems individually and as part of their associated heating and cooling distribution systems in two semi-attached houses. Over the monitoring period, the performance of both heat pumps exceeded manufacturer and EnerGuide ratings, with Coefficients of Performance (COPs) above 5 in the cooling ...
