A new type of air-water heat pump has been developed with the aim to cover an extended application range in high temperature residential heating (for retrofitting existing oil or gas boilers in hydronic heating systems). The base heat output is about 10 kW ...
This thesis presents a system approach with the aim to develop improved concepts for small capacity, high temperature lift air-water heat pumps. These are intended to replace fuel fired heating systems in the residential sector, which leads to a major redu ...
Providing heat pumps for the retrofit of fuel based boilers in residential heating, is a short or medium term challenge and a major opportunity for a substantial reduction of greenhouse gas emissions. While effective solutions for improved high temperature ...
The Laboratory of Industrial Energy systems has evaluated a series of high performance air-water heat pump concepts with the aim to retrofit existing fuel fired boilers for residential hydronic heating systems. The results are published within the framewor ...
The project High Temperature Heat Pump has been completed in 2 phases. First a new type of scroll compressor with adapted injection port for vapor injection, was tested with an air-water heat pump (fig 2.2, 2.3). This type of heat pump reaches the extreme ...
The subject of this project is to develop a high performance air water heat pump which is able to be introducted in the retrofit market. The system requirements of this market are heating temperatures of 65°C, at ambient temperatures descending until -12°C ...
In this report different air-water heat pump cycles under the operating conditions of the retrofit market and in the low heating power range are examined. The already existing heat pump models show excessive power and efficiency loss at very low ambient te ...
The efficient thermal control of buildings is a complex problem. Non controlled perturbations like user behaviour and meteorological conditions can change much with time and make this task difficult. This work proposes considering the building as a 'living ...
Replacing conventional boilers by air to water heat pumps represents a major market opportunity and a contribution to more sustainable heating approaches. However, such retrofit situation impose tough technical requirements which must be met in order to de ...
In this work, a parametric study is done with computational methods for groundwater flow and heat transport in order to describe the dominant physical phenomena in an Aquifer Thermal Energy Storage (ATES). Optimum operating conditions and geological parame ...
