The Combined Solar with a Dual Heat Source Heat Pump Applied in a Greenhouse Heating System - An Operation Optimization of Water Source Heat Pump
Based on the finite-time thermodynamic theory, an operation optimization, of water source heat pump in the combined solar with a dual heat source heat pump which is applied in a greenhouse heating system, is made. According to the ε-NTU method and entropy theory, heat exchange and balance equations are obtained. The function relationship between COP and the indoor temperature Tn, the ambient temperature Ta, low temperature heat source inlet temperature Tie and high temperature heat source inlet temperature Tic is also obtained. By means of programming, the impact of parameters on the COP and the way of regulating this water source heat pump system are presented in this article. The results show that: when a separate water source heat pump is running, by adjusting the hot water temperature and the match status of each indoor heating system, the energy-saving operation can be realized.
