Compressor-driven heat pump development employing porous metal hydride compacts.
Author(s) : KIM K. J., FELDMAN K. T. Jr, LLOYD G. M., RAZANI A.
Summary
Such a heat pump was built, and calorimetry tests were performed to measure performance. The experimental results indicate that the present compressor-driven metal hydride heat pump can produce a cold output of approximately 0.25 kilowatt/kilogram of lanthanum-nickel with a cycle time of one minute. Overall, the described heat pump with a compressor efficiency of only 31% showed good performance. With an improved compressor, much higher performance would be achieved.
