Status report on survey of alternative heat pumping technologies.

Author(s) : FISHER S.

Summary

The Department of Energy of the Oak Ridge National Laboratory is studying alternative heat pumping technologies to identify possible cost effective alternatives to electric driven vapour compression heat pumps, air conditioners, and chillers that could help reduce CO2 emissions. Over thirty different technologies are being considered including: engine driven systems, fuel cell powered systems, and alternative cycles. Results presented include theoretical efficiencies for all systems as well as measured performance of some commercial, prototype, or experimental systems.
