Abstract

Through different technologies, the solar energy and air source energy have been effectively used as renewable energies to address the heating problem in the cold area of Northwest China. However, there are very few researches on the comprehensive performance of heat transfer enhancement and airflow pressure drop in the solar collector, as well the dynamic matching performance between the air source heat pump system and energy load of building. To address the mentioned problems, we propose a novel double serpentine runner air-cooled photovoltaic/thermal collector assisted variable capacity air source heat pump (DSPV/TSAC-VCASHP) system. The summary of experimental and numerical results of the heat transfer characteristics of the double serpentine runner was used in the simulation model of the novel collector. The collector and air source heat pump system are connected in parallel with building room for space heating. The dynamic simulation model of the system was established and simulated using TRNSYS to study and analyze the power consumption, effect of key parameters, as well seasonal performance of the novel system. The simulated results show that the system could reach around 88 % power consumption lower than that of single air source heat pump system during the heating season.
