Heat Pump COP Calculation
Heat Pump COP Calculation
(OP)
We have a water to air heat pump with open loop [pump and dump]. What info is needed to calculate its coefficent of performance and how is the calculation made?

Heat Pump COP Calculation

RE: Heat Pump COP Calculation
COP = Eu / Ea
where
COP = coefficient of performance
Eu = useful energy acquired (btu in imperial units)
Ea = energy applied (btu in imperial units)
COP can be used to define both cooling efficiencies or heating efficiencies as for a heat pumps.
Cooling - COP is defined as the ratio of of heat removal to energy input to the compressor
Heating - COP is defined as the ratio of heat delivered to energy input to the compressor
