  2. Heat pump - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat_pump

    Air-to-air heat pumps provide hot or cold air directly to rooms, but do not usually provide hot water. Air-to-water heat pumps use radiators or underfloor heating to heat a whole house and are often also used to provide domestic hot water. An ASHP can typically gain 4 kWh thermal energy from 1 kWh electric energy.

  3. Air source heat pump - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Air_source_heat_pump

    An air source heat pump (ASHP) is a heat pump that can absorb heat from air outside a building and release it inside; it uses the same vapor-compression refrigeration process and much the same equipment as an air conditioner, but in the opposite direction. ASHPs are the most common type of heat pump and, usually being smaller, tend to be used ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heating,_ventilation,_and...

    Electrical heaters are often used as backup or supplemental heat for heat pump systems. The heat pump gained popularity in the 1950s in Japan and the United States. [14] Heat pumps can extract heat from various sources, such as environmental air, exhaust air from a building, or from the ground. Heat pumps transfer heat from outside the ...

  5. Cold district heating - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cold_district_heating

    The annual performance factor of heat pumps is also relatively high, especially compared to air-sourced heat pumps. A study of 40 systems commissioned up to 2018 showed that the heat pumps achieved an seasonal COP of at least 4 for the majority of the systems studied; the highest seasonal COP values were about 6. [1]

  6. Coefficient of performance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coefficient_of_performance

    The COP usually exceeds 1, especially in heat pumps, because instead of just converting work to heat (which, if 100% efficient, would be a COP of 1), it pumps additional heat from a heat source to where the heat is required. Most air conditioners have a COP of 3.5 to 5. [3] Less work is required to move heat than for conversion into heat, and ...

  7. Photovoltaic thermal hybrid solar collector - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photovoltaic_thermal...

    In this way, this excess heat is made useful and can be utilized to heat water or as a low temperature source for heat pumps, for example. Thus, PVT collectors make better use of the solar spectrum. [3] Most photovoltaic cells (e.g. silicon based) suffer from a drop in efficiency with increased cell temperatures.
