This paper presents a study of a residential (about 20kW) ORC-ORC (Organic Rankine Cycle) thermally driven heat pump. The system works with three different temperature levels similar to absorption heat pumps. The proposed concept is a hermetic system using ...
Exergy concept combined with pinch based approach are used for studying the optimal integration of energy conversion systems. The analysis first considers the representation of the hot and cold composite curves of the process and defines the energy and the ...
Integrating energy saving technologies allow the design of more compact industrial processes with improved energy efficiency, better performances and environmental friendliness. The goal of the European project EXSYS II has been to develop a methodology an ...
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 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 ...
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 ...
A complex heating and cogeneration plant including two 3.9 MWth ammonia heat pumps and two 3 MWel gas turbines with heat recovery boilers and three storage tanks of 66 GJ has been in operation since 1986. The heating surface is actually about 280’000 m2 an ...
The pinch analysis method is a useful tool for the energy integration of industrial processes (structuring and simplification using simple guidelines). The pinch analysis method, extended to include exergy factors, falls within the framework of a global mu ...
The energy integration of industrial processes is becoming increasingly more effective thanks to new methodological developments such as pinch technology. This paper aims at extending the number of factors considered in pinch analysis toward a life-cycle o ...
With the push for greater energy conservation, the need for heating and/or power production is being filled by cogeneration facilities. Thus, the search for the best performance at the least cost for such multipurpose plants is made much more difficult by ...
