Abstract
The advantages of using a fossil-fuel heat pump (f.f.h.p.) compared with an electric heat pump are explained, and performance discussed. Full application of f.f.h.p.s to space heating could reduce the UK primary energy demand by up to 20%. Various types of f.f.h.p. are described and their performance is estimated. The OUERG/Lucas Aerospace gas-fired heat pump is described in detail, and preliminary results given.
