Vapour Compression

It has been demonstrated in the literature that significant energy savings can be achieved in air-conditioning through the use of so-called hybrid systems, in which a chemical dehumidification system is combined with a vapour-compression heat pump. The advantage of such systems lies in the fact that the heat pump can operate at a higher evaporation temperature than that of a traditional system in which dehumidification is achieved through condensation, thereby achieving higher coefficients of performance. The hybrid system described in the present paper operates as follows: the air supplied to the conditioned ambient is simultaneously cooled and dehumidified in an air-solution membrane contactor. The LiCl solution is cooled by means of a vapour-compression heat pump using the refrigerant KLEA 410A. The solution is regenerated in another membrane contactor by exploiting the exhaust air and the heat rejected by the condenser. A study of the steady-state behaviour of the system in summer climatic conditions was carried out, on varying some significant operating parameters, such as the thermal efficiency of the heat exchangers, the outdoor temperature and the sensible load of the conditioned room. The performances of the hybrid system were compared with those of a traditional direct-expansion air-conditioning plant; the results of the simulations reveal that, in particular operating conditions, energy saving can exceed 50%.

Natural Refrigerant

To avoid continuous damage of ozone layer and deterioration of global warming, many countries have devoted to the development and application of natural refrigerant. Although CO2, an alternative refrigerant in the area of air conditioning is not the best all-temperature refrigerant, it has the lowest operating risk as compared to hydrocarbon (HCs) and ammonia.Traditional drinking fountain provides heat source through secondary energy source - electric heating; however, the heating effect is limited. Since heat pump has a high performance, this study used a carbon dioxide heat pump, which has energy-saving effect and high efficiency, to provide heat source to drinking fountains. It further assembled the drinking fountain system with carbon dioxide heat pump and analyzed its performance.

Ground Source

The ground-source heat pump is a system which takes the shallow surface soil energy as the source of heating and cooling. The temperature of ground source is relatively stable throughout the year, which makes the ground-source heat pump have the higher operation efficiency compared with the traditional air-conditioning system.Study on the ground-source heat pump with properties of thermal dynamics used in heating and air comditioning by ecomomic analysis is still an important issue. In this paper, the ground-source heat pump and the traditional heating and air-conditioning system have been compared in terms of their economic competitiveness. Firstly, it is required to compare the ground-source heat pump with the traditional heating method in terms of the heating economy. Afterwards, it is necessary to compare the ground-source heat pump with the conventional electric refrigeration in terms of the air-conditioning economy. Finally, it is needed to conduct the comprehensive and economic analysis for the ground-source heat pump and the boilers and air conditioning, which includes four programs.

This paper analyses the energy consumption of water source heat pump, shows that the performance coefficient of water source heat pump unit is directly related to the temperature of water resources, and discusses the feasibility of central heating by recovering condensing heat of power plant using water source heat pump unit. It analyzes the energy saving benefit of water source heat pump unit is significant compared with traditional heating. Using the technology recovers waste heat of power plant, which can not only decrease the energy waste on the direct discharge of waste heat and water, but at the same time, it is a new air conditioning system without environmental pollution.
