The relatively low rate of return for GSHP systems over the first 20 years is due to current high capital costs as well as the mild weather conditions in Melbourne. Climate change was also factored into the economic analyses, with only minor effects observed. Finally, a scenario with ...

Full-Scale Instrumented Residential Ground Source Heat Pump Systems in Melbourne, AustraliaGround-source heat pump (GSHP) systems typically show higher efficiencies than conventional systems for space heating and cooling of buildings. However, the availability of GSHP systems performance......
The maximum required oil pump performance is determined by the condition of very hot oil in combination with idle speed to ensure sufficient lubrication for all bearings and the function of the variable valve train systems. So at low temperatures or at high speeds or a combination of both the ...
Keywords: borehole heat exchanger; geothermal heat pump; TRNSYS; thermal load; payback time; hybrid ground source heat pump; CO2 emissions; climate change 1. Introduction Heating, ventilation and air cooling (HVAC) of buildings account for 30–40% of global energy demand [1–3] and ...
The cooling of spaces in tropical regions, such as Southeast Asia, consumes a lot of energy. Additionally, rapid population and economic growth are resulting in an increasing demand for space cooling. The ground-source heat pump has been proven a reliable, cost-effective, safe, and environmentall...
With the increasing expansion of wind power, its impact on economic dispatch of power systems cannot be ignored. Adding a heat storage device to a traditional cogeneration unit can break the thermoelectric coupling constraint of the cogeneration unit and meet the economic and stable operation of a ...
[6]. Hot air systems can be direct or indirect. A direct hot air system has a very simple layout with a solar collector to heat the air and a pump to deliver the heated air to the process. An auxiliary heater can be used if the temperature of the heated air fails to meet the ...
