Webinar – Commercial Heat Pump Water Heater System Considerations in a Nut Shell

Commercial Heat Pump Water Heater System Considerations in a Nut Shell

Evan Green, Research Engineer at Ecotope, will present what he and his team have learned while designing, monitoring, and modelling commercial heat pump water heater systems over the last 15 years. The discussion will include what makes up a CHPWH system (spoiler: it’s more than just a heat pump), why these systems are necessary, and the main points to keep in mind when designing or overseeing a CHPWH system installation. Main design considerations to be discussed will include:

  1. how the CHPWH system can be  packaged, delivered and setup at the site,
  2. heat pump water heater (HPWH) types,
  3. heat pump and storage sizing,
  4. how to select the best CHPWH system piping configuration for your application.

What will be learned

  • What defines a CHPWH system
  • Why use CHPWHs
  • CHPWH system delivery & setup methods
  • Types of CHPWHs: single pass, multi pass, and unitary
  • Managing the hot water circulation efficiently
  • CHPWH system sizing

Webinar – Low Load Efficient Heat Pump Research

Modeling and lab testing revealed that some heat pumps work significantly better under part-load (low-load) conditions, resulting in significant annual energy savings with little to no differentiation in retail price. NEEA contracted with Cadeo Group and Optimized Thermal Systems to better understand why and what equipment hardware or design changes are needed to achieve top quartile low-load efficiency. The project involved two parts: 1) explore why. If the NEEP-published minimum capacity COP at 47 degrees is a good indicator of low-load efficiency, why isn’t this value reflected in the federal test procedure for HSPF2 or SEER2? And 2) the second part was to conduct a detailed virtual “paper” tear-down of many different heat pump systems to determine the source of low-load efficiency and what, if any, hard costs can be associated with such systems.
