A study on the application Heat Pump to Rolling Stock Air conditioner

히트펌프식 냉난방장치의 철도차량 적용에 관한 연구

Heat pumps transfer heat by circulating a substance called a refrigerant through a cycle of evaporation and condensation. But Heat pumps system by only using heat-source is not efficient. Because the mean temperature of North Korean winter season is low, economy of air heat-source heat pump descend. This paper is practiced the simulation on evaluation criteria for Heat pump heating and cooling systems to Rolling Stock. Efficiency of the heat pump in order improving from certainly the development of the technique will be able to prevent a freezing actual condition must proceed. As a result, Below $-10^{\circ}C$ used heating and cooling systems of heat pump format even in cold winter season and is serviceable confirmed with heat source supply circle of the Rolling Stock.
