Abstract
A study is made to determine the energy saving potential of a start—stop controlled water-loop heat pump (WLHP) system. The physical model consists of individual heat pumps for each zone, a two-pipe water-loop system (with and without a storage tank), a boiler and an evaporative cooler. The overall system consists of four input energy controllers and an equal number of mass flow rate controllers. A simple start-stop control strategy for the system is developed. Results showing the typical daily operation of the system under changing heating and cooling loads are presented. A method for selecting the appropriate limits for loop water temperature which results in energy savings is given.
