Summary

A residential absorption heat pump system has been developed based on a new absorption pair. It uses R123a (CCIF=CHCIF) as the refrigerant and ETFE (ethyltetrahydrofurfylether) as the absorbent. The thermodynamic analysis of the new pair shows the potential of very good performance for heat pump duties. Actual tests show that heating coefficients of performance (COP) in the range of 1.50 are possible, so the system is very competitive with other heating and cooling technologies aspecially in more northerly climates.
