AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Existing solar-heat pump combined heating water heaters cannot fully utilize the solar units in winter, resulting in reduced heating efficiency.

Method used

A solar-heat pump water heater was designed, comprising a solar unit and a heat pump unit. Heat exchange is achieved through an evaporator, and the solar heating medium is absorbed by a vacuum tube array. The heat is stored in a water tank to ensure that the evaporation temperature of the heat pump unit is maintained at a high level. A bypass and thermometer regulating valve are configured to optimize the flow of the medium and improve efficiency.

Benefits of technology

It can still effectively utilize solar energy for heating when solar energy supply is insufficient, thereby improving the thermal efficiency and overall efficiency of the heat pump unit and reconciling the time contradiction between heat supply and demand.
