B1.1 – Direct system design<br />
› The heat pump evaporator is in direct<br />
contact with the heat source (seawater,<br />
groundwater, sewage etc.)<br />
› The evaporator must be designed and<br />
operated to prevent corrosion, fouling,<br />
clogging and frost formation<br />

<strong>Air</strong>-to-<strong>Water</strong> <strong>Heat</strong> <strong>Pump</strong>s – Main Properties<br />
› Installation – possibilities and limitations<br />
› Ambient air is the most available heat source<br />
› <strong>Heat</strong>ing capacity and COP is affected by the ambient air temp.<br />
› Evaporator requires defrosting – energy use and possible problems<br />
› Fans generates noise – challenges wrt. location, use ”low noise” techn.<br />
› Max. water temp. 40-50 °C – limitation at high temp. requirements<br />
› Some heat pump units can supply 55-80 °C max. water temperature<br />
› May provide cooling, but limited free cooling<br />
› Investment, energy saving and lifetime<br />
› Rel. low investment costs since the evaporator is an integrated part<br />
› Moderate energy saving due to moderate energy coverage and SPF<br />
› Moderate lifetime due to large temp. variations (wear and tear)<br />

Example 5 – A/W HP in District <strong>Heat</strong>ing Syst.<br />
Norsk Kulde<br />
› The air coolers are parallel to the main wind direction – reduces fan work<br />
› The hatches are closed during defrosting in order to minimize heat loss<br />

<strong>Air</strong>-to-<strong>Water</strong> HPs – Comments<br />
› <strong>Air</strong>-to-water <strong>vs</strong>. brine-to-water heat pumps<br />
› Less energy saving due to lower SPF and lower energy coverage<br />
› Shorter lifetime due to large temperature variations<br />
› Lower outlet water temperature for same ”technologcial level”<br />
› Technolocial development for air-to-water HP systems<br />
› Two-stage system design<br />
› Economizer compressor design<br />
› Cascade system design<br />
› Scroll compressors witl EVI (Economized Vapour Injection)<br />
› Mono screw compressors – variable speed drive, v i control<br />
› Improved demand controlled defrosting systems<br />
› Optimized evaporator design – larger fin distance etc.<br />
› Surface treatment of evaporators ("blue/gold coating")<br />
› Improved control systems etc.<br />

<strong>Water</strong>/Brine-to-<strong>Water</strong> HPs – Comments<br />
› <strong>Water</strong>/Brine-to-water <strong>vs</strong>. air-to-water heat pumps<br />
› Higher energy saving due to higher SPF and higher energy coverage<br />
› Longer lifetime due to more stabile heat source temperature<br />
› Higher outlet water temperature for the ”same technological level”<br />
› Technological development for brine-to-water HP systems<br />
› Single-stage design +high-pressure compressors, 60-65 °C water temp.<br />
› Two-stage design + high-pressure compressors, 80-90 °C water temp.<br />
› Twin-screw compressors – variable speed drive, v i control<br />
› Mono-screw compressors – variable speed drive, v i control<br />
› Evaporators with micro porous surface coating (nano technology)<br />
› Propane (R290) og ammonia (R717) units for smaller capacities<br />
› Turbulence collectors for GSHPs<br />
› New heat exchanger types, e.g. bundle collector systems<br />
› Class A variable speed pumps<br />
