Performance and Benefits Evaluation of Two Water-Source Heat Pump Systems for District Heating

Abstract:

The heating source of a district heating (DH) system in Beijing was reformed from coal boilers to a groundwater heat pump (GWHP) system and a sewage source heat pump (SSHP) system. This study aims to evaluate the actual performance and benefits of two water-source heat pump systems. We found total energy savings and primary energy saving rate due to the retrofit to be 950 tons of standard coal equivalent (TCE) every year and 34.6%, respectively. Field test results indicated the necessity of system performance improvement. Appropriate approaches to improve the system performance were discussed.
