Abstract:The study is looking for the optimal configuration of an air-to-water heat pump capable of heating water in a flow-return system. Carbon dioxide is used as a working agent. In the optimization strategy, exergy analysis is considered. Using exergy analysis, the magnitude and the location of any functional or constructive malfunction can be revealed. First, a standard one-stage heat pump system is considered. Due to the high exergy destruction in the throttling valve, the efficiency of the standard system is imp… Show more
