Résumé

Adjusting vapor and liquid in the evaporator could lead to heat transfer enhancement and pressure drop reduction simultaneously. Its benefits in the steady system, such as air conditioning and heat pump, have been confirmed extensively, but its effectiveness in the dynamic system is not explored yet. In this paper, a vapor-liquid adjustment evaporator is implemented to heat pump water heater (HPWH-AE) featured by a dynamic water heating process. Comprehensive comparisons to the heat pump water heater with a conventional evaporator (HPWHCE) are experimentally investigated and discussed. Firstly, the matching test reveals that the optimized HPWH-AE has a 6.35 % higher COP than HPWHCE. Secondly, the detailed comparisons indicate that HPWH-AE has less evaporator pressure drop, smaller compressor ratio, higher refrigerant mass flowrate and decreased power consumption than HPWHCE. Thirdly, the divided tests are carried out with an increment of half hour. The results suggest that HPWH-AE outperforms HPWHCE in terms of heating capacity and COP at the first one and half hours, which becomes inferior afterwards. However, HPWH-AE has always lower power consumption relative to HPWHCE. The images from FLIR camera show that the vapor-liquid adjustment evaporator is featured by effectively utilizing heat transfer area, resulting from more evenly distributed temperatures. Finally, the feasibility is examined at various operating conditions. HPWH-AE could have higher heating capacity and lower power consumption than HPWHCE simultaneously when ambient temperature is between 18 °C and 26.5 °C. HPWH-AE always has higher COP of 4.92–6.35 % than HPWHCE.
