[TRNSYS-users] air-to-water heat pump - Type 941



Dear All,

 

I am modelling a house heated by radiators using an air-to-water heat pump. This model is based on user-supplied data files containing catalogue data for the capacity and power based on the inlet water temperature and air to the heat pump. As I understand, for a specific existed heat pump, the system should be tested for several inlet conditions (for example 5 different temperatures of water and air=25 case) and then create a new data file including the capacity and power. Am I correct?

My main question is that is it possible to consider additional characteristics of the heat pump in the model such as variable speed compressor so the system can be worked with a lower power when less heat is required for the radiators?

 

Thanks in advance

 

Best regards
