  5. 4. Experimental Evaluation Of Large Scale Propane Heat Pump For Space Heating Application

    University essay from KTH/Tillämpad termodynamik och kylteknik

    Author : Salvatore Piscopiello; [2015]
    Keywords : Heat pumps; propane; tandem compressor; IMSTART model; hydraulic system design;

    Abstract : A significant part of the environmental impact of a heat pump isgenerally related to the direct emission of the refrigerant fluid during thelife time of the machine. Although the Montreal Protocol has alreadylargely secured its status as a success story by cutting the ozone deplentationrefrigerants drastically, we still have to deal with the challengesresulting from climate change.
