Goals:
The purpose of this project is:
- to apply to a real machine (tap
water heat pump boiler) part of the theory provided to the students in the courses
"thermodynamics and fluid mechanics" (wb1123), fluid mechanics (wb1120) and
"thermodynamics" (wb1224).
- to apply, for design purposes, the
entropy-production and the exergy loss concepts for the quantification of the contribution
of the different heat pump components to the irreversibility of the complete system.
- To develop skills and knowledge of
sustainable development in relation to thermodynamic cycles.

Computer
use:
Computers are used throughout the project: for information search (program of
requirements); during design steps; for thermodynamic data calculation; for experimental
data acquisition and processing; for reporting. |
Laboratory
project(s):
Experimental work with compression heat pump boiler
installations. Collection of experimental cycle performance data. |
Design
content:
The project has a design character. At the end of the project a tap water heat pump
boiler has been roughly designed. The evaluation of the project is based on the design
steps followed and not on the resulting design. The advantages of the application of
second law analysis during the design of thermodynamic cycles such as heat pumps follow
from the design procedure. |
