Abstract
A thorough performance analysis of a heat pump air conditioning system for both heating and cooling applications is presented in this research. The purpose of the study is to assess the system’s overall performance, energy usage, and efficiency under various operating circumstances. The study makes use of a variety of experimental measurements. An outline of the heat pump air conditioning system’s parts and operation is given at the start of the analysis. Important factors including compressor power usage, ambient temperature, refrigerant flow rate, and indoor/outdoor temperature differentials are all monitored during the experimental setting. These measurements, which take into account both heating and cooling modes, are gathered under varied working conditions. For HVAC engineers, researchers, and policymakers, the performance analysis of the heat pump air conditioning system provided in this paper is an invaluable resource. The insights gained from this study contribute to the on-going efforts to improve the design and operation of heat pump systems for heating and cooling applications, fostering sustainability and energy conservation in the built environment.
