Summary

Heat pumps can be more environmentally friendly than heating sources using the combustion of solid fuels. To avoid environmental damage from refrigerant leaks, transcritical heat pumps using CO2 as a working fluid could be used. To increase the efficiency of the system, a two-phase ejector with an adjustable needle is considered in this work. Considering the type of operation, heat transfer using plate heat exchangers is considered in the paper. The paper deals with the design of an experimental transcritical heat pump concept with CO2 refrigerant for use in residential wastewater heat recovery applications.
