Abstract

Base on the thermodynamic characteristic of transcritical CO2, compared to conventional refrigerants, CO2 heat pump water heater can still maintain a relatively high value of the COP when it produce hot water with temperatures up to 95°C without operational problems, however, optimization of system must be necessary. In this paper, we presented the experiment exploration and study about systems optimization of commercial air source CO2 heat pump hot water(heat production more than 50kW), detailed analyzed the factors resulting heating COP decline as the outlet water temperature increases , and gave some way to improve heating COP. Meanwhile, utilizing the data of performance experiments at different outlet water temperature (55~80°C) and ambient temperature (-15~35°C), we fitted the optimal pressure equation to control the heat pump hot water in optimal operating condition.
