Test model for heat pump based on Carnot efficiency and condenser outlet temperature control signal

Buildings.Fluid.HeatPumps.Examples.Carnot_TCon

Information

Example that simulates a chiller whose efficiency is scaled based on the Carnot cycle. The chiller takes as an input the evaporator leaving water temperature. The condenser mass flow rate is computed in such a way that it has a temperature difference equal to dTEva_nominal.

Buildings.Fluid.HeatPumps.Examples.ScrollWaterToWater_OneRoomRadiator Buildings.Fluid.HeatPumps.Examples.ScrollWaterToWater_OneRoomRadiator

Heat pump with scroll compressor connected to a simple room model with radiator

Buildings.Fluid.HeatPumps.Examples.ScrollWaterToWater_OneRoomRadiator

Information

Example that simulates one room equipped with a radiator. Hot water is produced by a 24 kW nominal capacity heat pump. The source side water temperature to the heat pump is constant at 10°C.

The heat pump is turned on when the room temperature falls below 19°C and turned off when the room temperature rises above 21°C.
