In winter,Many families use air source heat pump because of the low evaporation temperature of the system, resulting in lower heating efficiency of system. To solve this problem, the low temperature solar assisted hot water was added to the project which is on the basis of air source heat pump, and the system has been tested. After analysis of the collection efficiency of solar collectors at low temperatures and comparative analysis of the temperature cycle, pressure, energy consumption of the low-temperature solar-assisted systems and air source heat pump system, the optimal collector temperature and law of heat pump refrigerant cycle changes of the system were obtained. Theoretically, comparative analysis of low temperature air source heat pumps and solar hot water secondary air source heat pump compression ratio and COP. It gives the key parameters affecting the compression ratio and COP, pointing out ways to improve the heat pump COP. Finally, a key measure to improve the thermal performance of the unit system is proposed, to provide a reference for future practical applications and research. Foreword Air source heat pump in ambient air contains rich low grade solar potential as a source of heat, it has inexhaustible characteristics [1] . The main reason for restricting the use of air source heat pump in northern area of our country is when the outdoor air temperature is low in winter, the outdoor coil frost severe heating efficiency air source heat pump is greatly reduced. Martinez suggested experimental study on the application of solar radiant floor heating systems , solar water temperature is 50-60°C, low efficiency, especially when overcast snow lower system efficiency [2] .In view of the outdoor coil frosting problem, direct expansion solar assisted heat pump water heater system using the proposed by Li Yuwu, from a certain extent alleviated the problem of heat in winter for coil winter fros, improving the heating coefficient and improved the operating characteristics of the unit. However, this system requires the direct absorption of heat in air tube, and the specific heat of air is small, difficult to heat storage, illumination by solar radiation impact, unstable system operation [3]. Based on the above issues, for the low-level office building , the new rural residential , this study presents low temperature solar auxiliary air source heat pump system , the device uses low-temperature solar hot water heat pump system as low , both full use of solar energy , but also eliminates the original system frost problems and improve the efficiency of solar collectors and heat set to improve the evaporation temperature of the evaporator , thereby increasing the compression ratio of the heat pump unit .

The simultaneous need for energy efficiency and indoor comfort may not be met by existing air source heat pump (ASHP) technology. The novelty of this study lies in the use of a new gravity-driven radiator as the indoor heating terminal of ASHPs, aiming to provide an acceptable indoor comfort with improved energy efficiency. To confirm and quantify the performance improvement due to the proposed system retrofit, a field test was conducted to examine the system performance under real conditions. In the tests, measurements were made on the refrigerant- and air-side of the system to characterize its operational characteristics. Results showed that the proposed radiator has a rapid thermal response, which ensures a fast heat output from the system. The proposed system can create a stable and uniform indoor environment with a measured air diffusion performance index of 80%. The energy efficiency of the proposed system was also assessed based on the test data. It was found that the system’s first law efficiency is 42.5% higher than the hydraulic-based ASHP system. In terms of the second law efficiency, the compressor contributes the most to the overall system exergy loss. The exergy efficiency of the proposed system increases with the outdoor temperature and varies between 35.02 and 38.93% in the test period. The research results and the analysis methodology reported in this study will be useful for promoting the technology in search of energy efficiency improvement in residential and commercial buildings.
