Mesin pengkondisian udara umumnya digunakan untuk memberikan efek pendinginan (cooling effect). Efek pendinginan dimaksudkan untuk memberikan kenyamanan di ruang yang didinginkan, sehingga rasa nyaman membuat orang betah didalamnya. Mesin pengkondisian udara secara termodinamika kebanyakan beroperasi menggunakan siklus kompresi uap, dimana panas diserapkan disisi evaporator di dalam ruangan, kemudian panas tersebut dibuang di kondensor di luar ruangan. Proses tersebut dapat berlangsung karena kerja kompresor dan penurunan tekanan yang terjadi pada katup ekpansi atau pipa kapiler, sehingga siklus kompresi uap bekerja sempurna. Pada sistem pengkondisian udara biasanya panas terbuang kelingkungan begitu saja, panas tersebut dapat dimanfaatkan untuk memanaskan air dengan penambahan kondensor dummy. Penambahan kondensor dummy pada penelitian ini dilakukan untuk melihat pengaruh penambahan kondensor dummy terhadap beban pendingin, daya kompresi, temperatur, dan Coefficient of Performance (COP). Metode yang digunakan pada penelitian ini ialah metode rancang bangun dan eksperimental. Berdasarkan hasil pengujian, selama pengoperasian 120 menit diperoleh temperatur air panas pada  kondisi tanpa beban (0W), beban 1000W, 2000W dan 3000W berturut-turut adalah 52,83oC, 56,58oC, 57,93oC dan 64,73oC.

Abstract Ejector driven systems have the ability to operate at high efficiencies, utilizing recycled thermal energy as a power source. For a typical ejector heat pump system, the increase of the condenser temperature reduces the coefficient of performance (COP). In addition, if the condenser temperature is higher than the critical temperature, the ejector may not function. In this situation, the condenser temperature must be reduced, and an additional heater will be utilized to heat the production water from the condenser temperature to the desired temperature. In this investigation, a single-stage gas-fired ejector heat pump (EHP) is investigated and thermodynamically modeled in order to optimize the system COP for the purpose of heating water by utilizing the thermal energy from the ambient air. The effects of the high-temperature evaporator (HTE) and low-temperature evaporator (LTE) temperatures on the ejector critical back pressure and the EHP system performance are examined for a HTE temperature range of 120-180 °C and LTE temperatures of 15.5, 17.5, and 19.5 °C. Results show that an optimized COP of the EHP system exists which depends on HTE and LTE temperatures, primary nozzle throat diameters. In addition, it is found that the EHP COP is independent of the ejector COP. From this investigation a maximum EHP COP of 1.31 is able to be achieved for a HTE temperature of 160 °C and a LTE temperature of 19.5 °C with a total heating capacity of 15.98 kW.

This work involves measurements, analyses, and evaluations of the performance of add-on, Heat Pump Water Heater (HPWH) systems in residential and small commercial applications. Two air-source Heat Pump (HP) systems rated at 7,000- and 12,000-BTU (2.051- and 3.517-kWh), were utilized in this work. The two HPs were retrofitted to two 50-gallon (189.3 liters) electric-resistance storage water-heaters with their electric heating elements removed. A third, standard electric water-heater (EWH), was used for comparison. The testing set-up was fully instrumented for measurements of pertinent parameters, including inlet and outlet water temperatures, inlet and outlet air temperatures of the HPs, temperature and humidity of the air in the surrounding space, volume of water draws out of the storage heater tanks, as well as electric energy consumptions of the systems. Several performance measures were used in this work, including the Coefficient of Performance (COP), which is a measure of the instantaneous energy output in comparison with the energy input; Energy Factor (EF), which is an average measure of the COP taken over extended periods of time; and the First Hour Rating (FHR), which is a measure of the maximum volume of hot water that a storage type water-heater can supply to a residence within an hour. The results obtained clearly indicate that, HPWH systems are much more efficient as compared to standard EWHs. While the average value of the EF for a standard EWH is close to 1.0, the HPWH systems yield EFs averaging more than 2.00, resulting in annual energy savings averaging more than 50%. The results also showed that, HPWH systems are effective at reducing utility peak demand-loads, in addition to providing substantial cost savings to consumers.

Although CO 2 as refrigerant is well known for having the lowest global warming potential (GWP), and commercial domestic heat pump water heater systems exist, its long expected wide spread use has not fully unfolded. Indeed, CO 2 poses some technological difficulties with respect to conventional refrigerants, but currently, these difficulties have been largely overcome. Numerous studies show that CO 2 heat pump water heaters can improve the coefficient of performance (COP) of conventional ones in the given conditions. In this study, the performances of transcritical CO 2 and R410A heat pump water heaters were compared for an integrated nearly zero-energy building (NZEB) application. The thermodynamic cycle of two commercial systems were modelled integrating experimental data, and these models were then used to analyse both heat pumps receiving and producing hot water at equal temperatures, operating at the same ambient temperature. Within the range of operation of the system, it is unclear which would achieve the better COP, as it depends critically on the conditions of operation, which in turn depend on the ambient conditions and especially on the actual use of the water. Technology changes on each side of the line of equal performance conditions of operation (EPOC), a useful design tool developed in the study. The transcritical CO 2 is more sensitive to operating conditions, and thus offers greater flexibility to the designer, as it allows improving performance by optimising the global system design.

A novel solar-powered hybrid energy system with cooling and heating is presented, which consists of an adsorption ice maker subsystem and water heater subsystem. It can be used as an ice maker and water heater hybrid system or a single water heater respectively according to incident solar radiation intensity. A numerical model is developed to predict the performances of the hybrid energy system. Performance simulation and analysis on the hybrid energy system have been made. Simulation results show that, under the climatic conditions of daily solar radiation being about 12-20MJ/m2, the hybrid energy system can be used as an ice maker and a water heater effectively, its daily solar cooling COP (coefficient of performance) is about 0.173 - 0.181, the daily heating coefficient of performance is about 0.294-0.327.

A general air-source heat pump water heater originally designed to work with R134a was reconstructed as experimental rig for performance studies on systems using different refrigerants including R32, R134a and the mixture of R32/R134a which mass ratio is 1:5. Experimental results showed that the power consumption of the heat pump water heater charged individually with R32 would greatly exceed the system’s original pre-set maximum input power. When the leaving water temperature was increased from 18°C to 58°C, the average discharge temperature of the heat pump charged with R32/R134a mixture was 13.6% higher than that with R134a. The average power consumption of the heat pump with R134a was 253.5W less than that with R32/R134a mixture. However, the average COP (Coefficient of Performance) obtained by that with R32/R134a mixture was 0.83 higher than that with R134a.

Considering the large energy consumption of conventional water heaters in residential buildings, the performance of a new type of water heater has been characterized through conducting experiments and numerical modelling. The specific water heater investigated in this work benefits from heat absorption from the indoor air, denoted as the air source heat pump water heater (ASHPWH), and is located in the Archetype Sustainable Twin House B in Toronto. The experiments have been conducted under three different indoor conditions associated with temperature and humidity. The coefficient of performance (COP), which quantifies the ratio of heating capacity to the consumed power of ASHPWH, ranges between 1.5 and 5, depending on the indoor dry bulb and water inlet temperatures. A TRNSYS model of ASHPWH has been constructed based on the obtained experimental results and has subsequently been integrated with a TRNSYS model of the Archetype Sustainable House (ASH). The numerical results were verified with the experimental data. The model results suggests that after employing ASHPWH, the domestic hot water energy consumption reduces by 60.3% and 53.2% compared to the electric water heater in summer and winter respectively. Due to the energy absorption of ASHPWH from the indoor environment, the heating load of the ASH house increases while its cooling load decreases. Furthermore, the annual electricity consumption of the ASH house due to the required heating and cooling as well as the domestic hot water demand is reduced by 21.3%. Finally, as a consequence of employing ASHPWH, the energy cost and GHG emission were reduced respectively by 22% and 21.7%. By investigating the system in four other Canadian cities, it appears that Vancouver and Edmonton would have the maximum and minimum energy savings respectively.
