THE LABORATORY EVALUATION OF THE HEATING MODE PART-LOAD OPERATION OF AN AIR-TO-AIR HEAT PUMP.

Author(s) : MILLER W. A.

Summary

THE LABORATORY EVALUATION OF THE PART-LOAD COP AND CAPACITY OF AN AIR-TO-AIR HEAT PUMP WERE CONDUCTED IN A PARAMETRIC STUDY OF HEAT PUMP ON-TIME, OFF-TIME, AND OUTDOOR AMBIENT TEMPERATURE. IMPROVEMENTIN CYCLING COP AND CAPACITY WAS OBSERVED BY CONTROLLING OFF-CYCLE REFRIGERANT MIGRATION. BEST CYCLING COP AND CAPACITY PERFORMANCE OCCURRED FOR CYCLING TESTS CONDUCTED WITH REFRIGERANT ISOLATED IN THE INDOOR HEAT EXCHANGER DURING THE OFF-CYCLE COUPLED WITH 2 MIN OF EXTENDED INDOOR BLOWER OPERATING DURING THE OFF-CYCLE.
