Experimental results of a high-temperature heat pump prototype with R1336mzz(Z) for various production temperatures.

Summary

Vapour compression heat pumps are the most promising technologies for decarbonisation in high-temperature processes. This paper presents experimental data of a high-temperature heat pump prototype designed for R-245fa when operating with R1336mzz(Z). Forty-five steady-state experiments were performed in a scroll compressor prototype with a liquid-to-suction heat exchanger at production temperatures between 102 °C and 158 °C (temperature difference of the secondary fluid between 8.5 K and 22 K) and waste heat temperatures between 80 °C and 118 °C (temperature difference of the secondary fluid between 12.6 K and 47.5 K). The heating capacity varied between 9.9 kW and 13.4 kW, and the coefficient of performance was between 2.0 and 4.8. Compared to previous experimental results using R-245fa, R-1336mzz(Z) results in higher COP under the same operating conditions. A medium-to-low carbon emission factor would make this solution more environmentally friendly than a natural gas boiler for small-scale heating production.
