An alternative configuration of Rankine cycle engine-driven heat pump system

Santoso, Moeljadi

Abstract Details

1989, Master of Science, Ohio State University, Mechanical Engineering.
This thesis investigates a new configuration of a heat pump system using a Rankine cycle engine to generate the required power. Presented in this paper is the study of the system's performance behavior with respect to the environmental and operating conditions variation. The objectives are to find the most favorable operating conditions that yield the highest COP possible in both heating and cooling modes, and to minimize the development cost by eliminating the unnecessary components without sacrificing COP. These objectives are accomplished by developing a computer model of the system to perform parametric analysis. The results of the analysis show that a competitive coefficient of performance can be achieved by running the heat pump in the optimal operating conditions.
