Résumé

Selecting appropriate working fluids is important for improving the technology readiness level of electrochemical heat pumps (EHP), which is a promising emerging technology for space conditioning and thermal management applications. The major contribution of this paper is to develop and evaluate key metrics to identify electrochemically active working fluids based on heat pump cycle requirements. The key metrics include the possibility of phase change after a chemical reaction, reversible cell voltage and power consumption, cooling and heating capacity, and environmental and safety aspects. Such metrics are applied to conduct fluid screening to assess their suitability. Isopropanol/acetone showed the highest potential to deliver efficient cooling and heating when applied to an EHP system; the use of ethanol/acetaldehyde and methanol/formaldehyde would easily enable electrochemical fluid condensation over a wide range of operating temperatures. Although the approach is demonstrated for selected organic fluids, the screening framework can be readily employed for other chemical compounds expanding the design space of electrochemical heat pumps.
