It is very important to obtain a out-of season production in horticultural greenhouses corresponding with higher crop prices. A ground source heat pump system has been highly spotlighed as an energy efficient heating system for the greenhouse. This paper investigated the operating cost of the ground source heat pump system with the variation of generating temperature and designing methods for heating system of the greenhouse. Even though the COP of the ground source heat pump system decreased with an increment of generating temperature in heating mode, the operating cost could be reduced. By adopting the high temperature heat pump system and heat storage tank, it could be achieved to save energy and reduce the operating time of auxiliary oil heating system for producing good plant-growth in the greenhouse.

This study was carried out in order to estimate the greenhouse performance for Ground filtration water source heat pump which was installed for supplying the heat to the paprika greenhouse in Jinju city. Experimental area of Greenhouse was $3,300m^2$, For keeping the heat from greenhouse, single plastic covering and double thermal screen was installed. With considering all of greenhouse insulation condition and designed heatng temperature, heating capacity for experimental greenhouse was calculated as 320,000kcal/hr. Coefficient of performance(COP) of Ground filtration water source heat pump was gauged and greenhouse heating performance was tested from Febuary 1 to Febuary 28 in 2011. The result showed that COP of heat pump was in the range of 3.7~4.7 and COP of heating system was in the range of 3.0~3.5. The vaule of COP was very high and the temperature inside greenhouse was well corresponded to the setting temperature of greenhouse environment controlling system. lots of Ground filtration water made the the number of well fewer and the expense for installing heating system cheaper than that of geothermal system used custmarily. and this system went beyond the limitation of intaking amount of groundwater in normal Groundwater source heat pump.

Simulation study on the operating characteristics in the solar hybrid R744 heat pump system for residential applications was carried out with heat pump operating temperature, outdoor temperature and solar radiation. As a result, collector operating time is decreased by 1.5 hours due to the increase of water temperature in the heat storage tank when the heat pump operating temperature rises. Heat pump operating time is reduced by 19.4% owing to the high temperature of a heat storage tank. Besides, indoor heating time is decreased from 10.3 to 5.5 hours as the indoor temperature increases from $3^{\circ}C$ to $11^{\circ}C$. In addition to, when the solar radiation rises from 10 to 20 MJ/$m^2$, the maximum outlet temperature of a solar collector is increased from $65^{\circ}C$ to $71^{\circ}C$.

In this study, the performance of a multi-stage condensation heat pump was examined. Computer simulation programs were developed for 1-stage, 2-stage, and 3-stage heat pumps and R11, R123, R141b were tested as working fluids. The results showed that coefficients of performance(COPs) of an optimized 3-stage condensation heat pump are 25∼40% higher than those of a conventional 1-stage heat pump. The increase in COP, however, differed among the fluids tested. The improvement in COP largely stems from the decrease in average LMTD values in the condensers of the multi-stage system. For the 3-stage condensation heat pumps, optimized UA values of three condensers were determined to be 30∼40% of the UA value of the total condenser regardless of the working fluid. When the amount of cooling water entering into the intermediate and high-stage subcoolers is roughly 10% of the total condenser cooling water respectively, the optimum performance was achieved for the 3-stage condensation heat pump.

Due to reinforcement of international environment regulation and high oil prices, interest in renewable energy is growing. Countries participating in UNFCCC are continuously putting efforts in reducing greenhouse gas after enforcing Kyoto Protocol into effect on Feb, 2005. Energy used in buildings, which relies heavily on fossil fuel accounts for about 24% of total energy consumption. In this study, air, geothermal and water source heat pump systems for an 322 $m^2$ auditorium in an office building is simulated using TRNSYS version 17 for comparing energy consumptions. The results show that energy consumptions of air, geothermal and water source heat pumps are 14,485, 10,249, and 10,405 kWh, respectively. Annual equal payments which consider both initial and running costs become 5,734,521, 6,403,257 and 5,596,058 Won. Thus, water source heat pump is the best economical choice.

In recent years, polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cell (PEMFC) based cogeneration system has received more and more attention from energy researchers because beside electricity, the system also meets the residential thermal demand. However, the low-quality heat exited from PEMFC should be increased temperature before direct use or storage. This study proposes a method to utilize the heat exhausted from a 10 kW PEMFC by coupling a heat pump. Two different configuration using heat pump and a reference layout with heater are analyzed in term of thermal and total efficiency. The system coefficient of performance (COP) increases from 0.87 in layout with heaters to 1.26 and 1.29 in configuration with heat pump and cascade heat pump, respectively. Lastly, based on system performance result, another study in economics point of view is proposed.

In this experimental study, the air cooling radial shape heat exchanger which influences on the COP and the cooling capacity by heat and mass transfer rate in the adsorbent bed was designed and applied to test its performance for adsorption heat pump(AHP). Zeolite-water was used for the adsorbent-adsorbat pair. As a result, the cooling COP and a cycle period of this adsorption heat pump are 0.28 and 2 hours, respectively, on the condition of none heat recovery from the adsorption reactor(absorber). The other results and recommendations are mainly related to improving the heat and mass transfer inside the absorber to reduce a cycle period.

The first kind LiBr -$H_2O$ absorption heat pump system was simulated and the performances of it were predicted. The elements of heat pump system, evaporator, absorber and generator were analysed by solving the energy balance equations and concentration equations which describe the reactions between working fluids. The results show that the temperature gain of absorber and condenser and the COP of the system are affected considerably by the operating conditions of heat pump system.

This paper presents the cooling performance analysis results of a ground-source heat pump (GSHP) system using hybrid ground heat exchanger (HGHE). In this paper, the HGHE refers to the ground heat exchanger (GHE) using both a vertical GHE and a surface water heat exchanger (SWHE). In order to evaluate the system performance, we installed monitoring sensors for measuring temperatures and power consumption, and then measured operation data with 4 different load burdened ratios of the hybrid GHE, Mode 1~Mode 4. The measurement results show that the system with HGHE mainly operates in Mode 1 and Mode 2 over the entire measurement period. The average cooling coefficient of performance (COP) for heat pump unit was 5.18, while the system was 2.79. In steady state, the heat pump COP was slightly decreased with an increase of entering source temperature. In addition, the parallel use of SWHE and VGHE was beneficial to the system performance; however, further research are needed to optimize the design data for various load ratios of the HGHE.

To improve heating performance of the heat pump in winter season, refrigerant heating device was applied to conventional heat pump. The refrigerant heating device operates at the heating capacity does not enough to the heating load requirement of the conditioning space. When the discharge air temperature of the indoor heat exchanger goes down to below $40^{\circ}C$ which is criterion for comfort of the occupants in the conditioning space, the system also starts. The refrigerant heating system has new concept of auxiliary heating device for heat pump in winter. In this study, the system performance was analyzed through experiments and parametric study was conducted to improve the COP and control strategies.
