Abstract

In order to solve the problem that the traditional heat pump system in the cold area of North China cannot supply heat efficiently and stably, a novel solar-air source heat pump system is proposed to meet the needs of building energy consumption. In winter, the latent heat of water in the ice tank is used as the main low-temperature heat source for the heat pump, and the outdoor air is used as the auxiliary heat source. During the day, the solar energy is used to restore the heat of the ice tank, so as to realize the complementary utilization of renewable energy. The air source heat pump can be used for cooling in summer. In addition, combined with night energy storage (cold storage and heat storage), the “peak load shifting” and the minimization of building operation energy consumption and cost are realized. The experimental platform and simulation model of the system are established, and the operation and design scheme of the system are optimized with the optimal economy. The optimization results show that the system can still maintain efficient operation under continuous extreme weather in winter and summer, and the SPF of the system in winter and summer are 2.93 and 2.6, respectively. Solar photovoltaic power generation meets part of the power demand of the system, which can save about 1.85 t of standard coal compared with thermal power generation. Compared with a conventional air source heat pump system, the novel system has better economy and a dynamic investment payback period of 3.86 years. The proposed system presents a way to meet building energy supply that is worthy of popularization and application in cold areas.
