Author(s) : WRIGHT T., LACKEY R. S., VEYO S. E.

Summary

THIS PAPER DOCUMENTS EFFORTS TOWARD DEVELOPMENT OF A HIGH-EFFICIENCY OUTDOOR AIR MOVER FOR AN ADVANCED ELECTRIC HEAT PUMP. THE GOAL WAS TO HALVE THE OUTDOOR AIR-MOVING ELECTRICAL POWER. THE OVERALL AIR-MOVING EFFICIENCY OF THE PROTOTYPE IS ESTIMATED AT ABOUT 35% COMPARED WITH 19% FOR THE CONVENTIONALLY APPLIED HEAT PUMP FAN. ALTHOUGH THIS AIR MOVER WILL COST TWICE AS MUCH AS THE CONVENTIONAL HEAT PUMP AIR MOVER, THIS PREMIUM COST SHOULD BE RECOVERABLE IN LESS THAN FOUR YEARS THROUGH ENERGY SAVINGS.
