SharePerformance evaluation of an ambient-energy heat pump system.
Author(s) : HINO T.
Summary
The paper describes a unique heat pump system whose outdoor panels can exploit ambient energy surrounding a building for its heat exchange. The newly developed system was applied to a building and its performance monitored. As expected, wind and rain improved the heat dissipation capability of the outdoor panels. Because of well-designed ice storage coils, the observed COP, although not totally satisfactory, was considerably better than that of ordinary ice storage systems. With a seasonal performance factor of 3.5, this system is estimated to be more efficient than solar-powered cooling systems.
