Abstract
An experimental study on operation performance of photovoltaic–thermal solar heat pump air-conditioning system was conducted in this paper. The experimental system of photovoltaic–thermal solar heat pump air-conditioning system was set up. The performance parameters such as the evaporation pressure, the condensation pressure and the coefficient of performance (COP) of heat pump air-conditioning system, the water temperature and receiving heat capacity in water heater, the photovoltaic (PV) module temperature and the photovoltaic efficiency were investigated. The experimental results show that the mean photovoltaic efficiency of photovoltaic–thermal (PV/T) solar heat pump air-conditioning system reaches 10.4%, and can improve 23.8% in comparison with that of the conventional photovoltaic module, the mean COP of heat pump air-conditioning system may attain 2.88 and the water temperature in water heater can increase to 42 °C. These results indicate that the photovoltaic–thermal solar heat pump air-conditioning system has better performances and can stably work.
