Quasi-dynamic model of the energy efficiency degradation coefficient for an air-to-water heat pump

Energy efficiency model for small/medium geothermal heat pump systems

Heating application efficiency is a crucial point for saving energy and reducing greenhouse gas emissions. Today, EU legal framework conditions clearly define how heating systems should perform, how buildings should be designed in an energy efficient manner and how renewable energy sources should be used. Using heat pumps (HP) as an alternative “Renewable Energy System” could be one solution fo...

Model Predictive Control of Heat Pump Water Heaters for Energy Efficiency

Water heating accounts for 17.7% of total residential energy use in the United States and is the second largest end use after space heating and cooling. There is great potential to improve the energy efficiency of residential water heaters and reduce their energy use in new and existing homes. Previous efforts primarily focused on improving the insulation and combustion efficiency of water heat...

Passive Energy Air-to-Water Heat Pipe Based Heat Exchanger and its Potential of Air Pre-cooling in Air Conditioning Systems for Iran Climate

Air pre-cooling equipment is normally being employed in air-conditioning systems for pre-cooling the ambient outdoor air to enhance the air-conditioning systems performance. In this study, the potential of a passive water-to-air heat pipe based heat exchanger (HPHEX) for air pre-cooling purpose in air-conditioning systems for the high cooling load demanding regions of Iran was investigated. To ...
