Maximising Heat Pump Efficiency

Heat pumps have seen a significant rise in popularity in recent years – and rightly so, as they are the technology of choice for making buildings more sustainable. However, implementing a heat pump isn’t a simple plug-and-play solution. Proper hydraulic and control-strategic integration are crucial to achieve maximum efficiency and extend the system’s lifetime.

Heat pumps have seen a significant rise in popularity in recent years – and rightly so, as they are the technology of choice for making buildings more sustainable.

However, implementing a heat pump isn’t a simple plug-and-play solution. Proper hydraulic and control-strategic integration are crucial to achieve maximum efficiency and extend the system’s lifetime. Factors such as delta-T monitoring, start-stop behaviour, storage tank sizing, return temperature control, and more must be carefully considered during the HVAC design process.

In this webinar, we’ll cover best practices for designing HVAC systems with heat pumps, exploring various system concepts and design templates. Our HVAC Expert, Finn Hansenne, will guide you through the following topics, with a live Q&A at the end:

Heat pump sizing
Staged versus VSD compressor
Heat pump control (delta-T-control, return temperature control)
Storage tank sizing (anti-cycling, peak shaving, anti-frost cycle)
Heat pump / boiler hybrid (for low- and high-temperature)
Full electric (for low- and high-temperature, booster heat pump, ammonia/propane/CO₂)

An Introduction to Air Handling

Understanding air handling units and their role in HVAC systems is crucial for maintaining indoor air quality. In this webinar, we'll explore the different types of AHUs, delve into the Mollier/HX diagram, and discuss key topics such as VAV/CAV systems and CO₂ control.

Designing Changeover Systems

In changeover systems, the same thermal end units or even the same hydraulic network are used for both heating and cooling purposes. This makes them attractive from an investment standpoint but significantly increases the complexity of calculations.
