The substitution of CFC refrigerants in refrigeration systems, heat pumps and organic Rankine cycles, requests a good knowledge of the heat transfer and pressure drop properties of substitute fluids. A contribution to this international effort is proposed ...
This project is evaluating a heat pump cycle with midstage injection at scroll compressors. The injected refrigerant is evaporated partially by an internal heat exchanger (fig. 2.1). A glycol-water heat pump with 12 kW heat capacity at B-5/W50 was built an ...
A brine/water heat pump with the auxiliary liquid subcooling cycle with a heating capacity of 9 kW at -7/50°C was built and a series of measurement were conduced. The heat pump is designed for the monovalent heating in the retrofit market. For this purpose ...
The capacities of performance improvements of low and mid-size heat pumps are studied in this project. For the new buildings market, the components of the heat pump match already well the requirements for high performance and monovalent heating. Minor impr ...
The aim of this work is to extend the investigation, to the influence of lubricating oil on R22-oil mixture in the heat pump and refrigeration system. The refrigerant-oil test bed was modified to accommodate R22-oil mixture investigation and R22-oil solubi ...
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 ...
This review highlights the major advantages and challenges of mechanically driven heat pumps and refrigeration systems with focus on multi-temperature applications. Different design strategies are presented, including cycles with multi-stage compressors, e ...
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 ...
