Current status of Super Heat Pump Energy Accumulation Systems.

Summary

The paper describes the current status of Japanese large scale energy conservation project entitled as "Super Heat Pump Energy Accumulation Systems". The nine-year super heat pump R&D project was terminated at the end of March 1993. The authors have conducted evaluation tests of high performance electric driven compression heat pumps and chemical heat storage units and on-site evaluation tests for combined system of super heat pump and chemical heat storage unit at a new building. The authors have achieved COP larger than 8 for the electrically driven high performance heat pump of the heating type with the output temperature 85 deg C. With another high performance type, COP 7 was attained for cooling and COP 6 for heating under conditions to meet the Japanese Industrial Standards. Tests of chemical heat storage units have proven that these units were able to reach the target value.
