Modeling and Analysis of a Variable Speed Heat Pump for Frequency Regulation Through Direct Load Control

This paper presents a dynamic model of a variable speed heat pump (VSHP) in a commercial building that responds to direct load control (DLC) signals, updated every 4 s, for the improvement of grid frequency regulation (GFR). The model is simplified for real-time simulation studies with the time hori...
