This research describes the development of a compression/absorption hybrid heat pump system that utilizes a mixture of NH3 and H2O as a working fluid. The heat pump cycle is based on a hybrid combination of vapor compression cycle and absorption cycle. The system consists of major components of...

GSHP (ground source heat pump) systems have become widely used as a result of the recent increasing demand for new and renewable energy polices in Korea. However, reliability issues have been key issues during installation and operation since they were initially designed. This paper introduces a...
