Résumé

As small-scale (2.5 – 5 kW) heat pumps across the US increase straining the grid during peak hours, integrated heat pump thermal energy storage (HP-TES) systems can assist by load shifting. However, challenges arise when assembling these systems, as direct refrigerant-phase change material (PCM) heat exchangers (HXs) increase refrigerant charge, and indirect secondary loops degrade HP-TES performance. In this work, direct and indirect HP-TES configurations were sized using commercially available HXs to compare the available load shift time and performance at similar refrigerant charges. For the same indirect 5 kW HP-TES refrigerant charge, directly HP-TES can operate up to 72 and 145 minutes in cooling and heating modes, respectively, using small diameter tubes. Using Modelica, COP increases for direct and indirect HP-TES were 22% and 9%, respectively, given the parasitic losses in the indirect HP-TES. Overall, small-scale direct HP-TES can have comparable refrigerant charges with indirect HP-TES maximizing COP improvements.
