Air-Source Integrated Heat Pump for Near-Zero Energy Houses: Technology Status Report

Technical Report ·
DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/971208· OSTI ID:971208
This report documents the development of an air-source integrated heat pump (AS-IHP) through the third quarter of FY2007. It describes the design, analyses and testing of the AS-IHP, and provides performance specifications for a field test prototype and proposed control strategy. The results obtained so far continue to support the AS-IHP being a promising candidate to meet the energy service needs for DOE's development of a Zero Energy Home (ZEH) by the year 2020.
