Abstract

The main objective of this research is to propose a HVAC system for an 80–100 m2 passive house dwelling based on a thermoelectric air-to-air heat pump combined with a heat recovery unit. The computational parametric investigation demonstrates that the integration of the heat recovery unit significantly improves the coefficient of performance of the heat pump: 2–3 times for partial load operation and 12.5 % for maximum load. Moreover, the number of required modules to reach the maximum performance is at least 5 times lower.
