[0031] like Figure 2As shown, a heat pump cycle based on exhaust waste heat recovery and its operation control system, the water system operation control method is as follows:

[0032] When the water system is started, it should first be checked whether the liquid level of the heat storage tank 32 is below the preset value. If it is below the preset value, the water replenishment pump 12 and the water replenishment electric butterfly valve 11 are started.
