Progress in the development of a carbon-ammonia adsorption gas-fired domestic heat pump.

Author(s) : CRITOPH R. E., METCALF S. J.

Summary

A gas-fired heat pump system intended to replace conventional condensing boilers is under development. The machine uses four sorption generators with heat recovery between all beds plus mass recovery and has a nominal heat output of 7 kW. Predicted annual average COP based on gross calorific value is 1.35 in a UK application with low temperature radiators. The system is described together with the simulation model, the test facilities and procedures. Construction is complete and commissioning is taking place during February 2011.
