Re: [TRNSYS-users] AIR TO AIR HEAT PUMP

[David BRADLEY <d.bradley@tess-inc.com>]

Alessandro,
  It depends on what heat pump model you are using. If you are using one of the TESS heat pump models then it does not take the COP directly. Instead it takes the heat pump capacity (energy delivered, assuming the heat pump does not have a variable speed compressor) and the heat pump power draw at various inlet conditions. The COP is computed from these two values so knowing two, you can compute the third and enter it in the external data files required by the heat pump model.
Regards,
 David

 Hi, I am doing a simulation with an air to air heat pump. How I can insert the pump efficiency (COP), because of the technical data regarding the pump power consumption and their heat loads. thanks
