Residential Heat Pump Heating Performance with Single Faults Imposed

October 29, 2010
Author(s)
William V. Payne, Piotr A. Domanski, Seok Ho Yoon
A heat pump equipped with a thermostatic expansion valve (TXV) was tested in environmental chambers during steady-state no-fault and imposed-fault operation. The studied system was an R410A split residential heat pump with an 8.8 kW nominal cooling

ANALYSIS OF SEGMENT-BY-SEGMENT ? - NTU MODELLING OF A MINICHANNEL CO2 GAS COOLER

July 12, 2010
Author(s)
Santiago M. Ballester, Jose M. Corberan, Jose Gonzalvez-Macia, Piotr A. Domanski
Most of the current air-to-refrigerant heat exchanger models use the classic ε-NTU approach. These models do not account for longitudinal conduction neither in the fin nor in the tube, transverse conduction in the tube, and for the heat conduction between

Evolutionary Computation Approach to Heat Exchanger Design

June 26, 2010
Author(s)
David A. Yashar, Janusz Wojusiak, Kenneth Kaufman, Piotr A. Domanski
The efficiency of a vapor compression system is strongly influenced by the performance of the finned-tube heat exchangers it employs. Heat exchanger performance is strongly influenced by the refrigerant circuitry, i.e., the connection sequence of the tubes

Evaporator Optimization for Non-Uniform Air Distribution

June 13, 2010
Author(s)
Piotr A. Domanski, David A. Yashar, Sunil Lee
This study demonstrates the performance improvements that can be achieved by accounting for the in-situ air flow distribution during the design phase of a heat exchanger. The heat exchanger used in this study was a two-slab, A-shaped finned-tube evaporator

Measurement Science Roadmap for Net-Zero Energy Buildings

March 18, 2010
Author(s)
Joan Pellegrino, Arthur H. Fanney, Andrew K. Persily, Piotr A. Domanski, William M. Healy, Steven T. Bushby
Buildings account for nearly a third of the world s energy use today, and this share is expected to rise along with population growth and levels of prosperity. In the United States, residential and commercial buildings consume about 40% of primary energy

Effect of Heat Pump Commissioning Faults on Annual Energy Use

January 24, 2010
Author(s)
Piotr A. Domanski, Hugh Henderson, William V. Payne
The study sought to develop an understanding of the impact of commissioning common faults the energy consumption of an air-to-air heat pump installed in a single-family house. Through annual simulations of the house/heat pump system, the study found that
