Detailed Thermo-Economic Assessment of a Heat Pump for Industrial Applications

Heat pump electricity costs grow with a power relationship as the evaporator temperature in the cycle decreases. The thermo-economic study of a solar thermal-assisted heat pump and storage system determines the minimum cost of the coupled system for an evaporator temperature. Through two case studie...
