Summary

The electric energy serves individual room reversible air-water heat pumps that mainly satisfy sensible cooling and a fraction of the winter heating load. An open-cycle absorption system, which treats the primary air, meets the summer latent load and year round ventilation requirements. In winter, the system operates as an open-cycle heat pump. The regeneration of the sorbent is obtained by the internal-combustion engine heat recovery. The proposed system is analyzed by comparing its performance with a traditional plant, both in summer and winter mode.
