Performance Assessment in Different Climates

摘要: This chapter analyses performance of solar assisted ground source heat pump system in different climates, drawing suggestions about how to properly configure the components layout and set operating modes described within Sect. 3.3. Performance SAGSHPs are logically influenced by amount collectors installed. Obviously it is not economically and, most cases, even possible install large thermal collector filed. Indeed, residential buildings, both single family houses block flat, have limited space for installing collectors. Besides collectors, V-GHX depth significantly influences SAGSHP, as conventional GSHP. In addition these aspects, controlled can enormously affect SAGSHP performance. Figure 4.1 shows terms COP, SPF SF studies regarding cold, temperate mild climates. Overall Fig. 1 introduction that COP considerably vary each climate. aims critically review main factors responsible such range order complete analyses, applications hot climate been also touched.
