Type of article: Article

Summary

DEVELOPS A MODEL FOR OPTIMAL CONTROL OF A HEAT PUMP SYSTEM WITH A STORAGE TANK. OBTAINS THE NUMERICAL SOLUTION BY TRANSFORMING THE FREE BOUNDARY CONDITION PROBLEM INTO ONE WITH FIXED BOUNDARY CONDITIONS AND SOLVING FOR THE OPTIMUM PATTERN OF HEAT PUMP CONTROL UNDER VARYING AMBIENT AND SOURCE TEMPERATURE DISTRIBUTIONS. INVESTIGATES THE EFFECT OF SOURCE-TEMPERATURE AND MASS STORAGE ON OPTIMUM COST AND GIVES AN APPROXIMATE METHOD OF PREDICTING ENERGY SAVINGS. STATES THAT SIMULATION RESULTSSUGGEST THAT, DEPENDING ON THE SOURCE TEMPERATURE, STORAGE CAPACITY AND BUILDING LOAD, SIGNIFICANT SAVINGS CAN BE MADE. (INT. BUILD. SERV. ABSTR., GB., 23, N 6, 1988, 8, 88-01721.
