Type of monograph: Book

Summary

Heat pumps and solar energy constitute inevitable solutions required in order to comply with energy-performance requirements embodied in 2012 heating regulations. This book presents the state of the art of all heat-pump technologies and applications and proposes a broad of solutions that can be applied in all sectors with heating and cooling requirements (individual and collective housing, tertiary sector buildings...). The technical, economic and environmental aspects of each type of application are analysed. A large section of the book presents installations currently in operation in France and other countries.
Extract from the table of contents: general information on heat pumps; compression heat pumps; absorption heat pumps; determining energy requirements; heating and/or cooling systems; presentation of sources; outside-air heat pumps; aquifer-source heat pumps; horizontal sensors, vertical or geothermal probes; other sensing devices in ground-source heat exchange systems; geothermal or thermoactive foundations; specific applications; heat pumps linked to a geothermal heat network; examples of installations, primary energy and environmental assessment; setting up a heat pump project.
