Type of article: Article

Summary

IN THE PAPER AN OPTIMIZATION METHODOLOGY AND A METHOD WHICH USES THE COMPOSITE CURVES AS A GUIDELINE TO THE CORRECT CHOICE OF HEAT PUMP TYPE ARE OUTLINED. THE SELECTION IS DONE BY MATCHING THE SHAPE OF THE COMPOSITE CURVES AGAINST THE SPECIFIC CHARACTERISTICS OF SEVERAL HEAT PUMP TYPES. FURTHERMORE, A METHODOLOGY FOR THE OPTIMIZATION OF THE MOST IMPORTANT PARAMETERS IN A HEAT PUMP SYSTEM IS PRESENTED. IN THE OPTIMIZATION METHODOLOGY THE ANNUAL COST IS MINIMIZED BY VARYING HEAT SOURCE AND HEAT SINK TEMPERATURES, THE HEAT PUMP SIZE AND THE STREAMOR STREAMS TO BE UTILIZED AS HEAT SOURCE AND HEAT SINK.
