Abstract

Based on the heating season testing of ground-source heat pump system (GSHP) in Wuhan, the article discussed the energy efficiency ratio of ground-source heat pump system under the heating conditions. By comparison with conventional chillers & coal-fired boiler system, the system energy savings, environmental benefits and incremental payback period are analysized. There comes to the conclusion that the energy saving rate of the heating season is about 19.74% higher than that of the cooling season, reducing 18.35 kg carbon dioxide emissions, 0.15kg of sulfur dioxide and 0.0743 kg of dust per unit construction area each year. Also this article concludes the annual energy saving rate of ground-source heat pump system equals to that of water-source heat pump, with the payback period 22% longer and the cost-effective ratio 32% higher.
