Explore the possibilities of using large heat pumps for heat production in district heating systems and industrial plants. As a participant of this course, you will be introduced to the technical working principles of heat pumps, different heat pump types and technological potentials and limitations.
See Danish version of this course.
Today, several types of large-scale heat pumps (>1 MW heating capacity) are commercially available, which means that the heat demand of a wide range of applications can be covered by heat pumps. Large-scale heat pumps enable the possibility to recover excess heat or to exploit natural low-temperature heat sources, such as ambient air. Low-temperature heat is collected, upgraded by use of electricity, and made useful at the relevant temperature. This is an efficient way of enabling electrification of industrial processes and district heating, and thereby phasing out the use of fossil fuels.
The course focusses on:
The course is organized as a mix of lectures, smaller exercises, and a group exercise. A lab tour visiting DTI’s large-scale heat pump testing facilities is also included.
The course is a basic course developed and organized especially for people, who is already acquainted with the basic principles of thermodynamics and/or refrigeration technology but have not worked extensively with heat pumps before.
