LABORATORY TEST RESULTS AND PRACTICAL IMPLICATIONS OF THE USE OF A GAS ENGINE DRIVEN COMPRESSION HEAT PUMP.

Author(s) : MENKVELD H. J.

Summary

TESTS WITH VARYING WATER TEMPERATURES AND FIELD TESTS WITH CAPACITY CONTROL OF THE COMPRESSORS WERE CARRIED OUT. THE CONTROL OF ROTATION SPEED IMPROVES THE FACTOR OF HEAT PRODUCTION, WHEREAS REMOVING CYLINDERS HAS AN UNFAVOURABLE EFFECT. ON-OFF CONTROL WITH TWO CYLINDERS IN OPERATION WAS COMPARED TO CONTROL WITH A SINGLE CYLINDER, GIVING MARKEDLY BETTER PRACTICAL FACTORS OF HEAT PRODUCTION. AN AVERAGE FACTOR OF HEAT PRODUCTION OF 200% CAN BE OBTAINED DURING A HEATING SEASON, INCLUDING THE USE OF A STAND-BY BOILER.
