Performance degradation during on-off cycling of single-speed heat pumps operating in the cooling mode: experimental results.

Author(s) : KATIPAMULA S., O'NEAL D. L.

Summary

A series of tests were designed to quantify the part-load performance of a three-ton (10.5 kilowatts) heat pump operating in the cooling mode. The tests include cycling rates from 0.8 to 10 cycles per hour and percent on-times of 20, 50, and 80%. The indoor and outdoor conditions were constant for all test runs. All experiments were performed in psychrometric chambers. Results and observations are given.
