Abstract

This dataset contains performance data for an inverter-controlled heat pump, focusing specifically on how efficiency fluctuates across different operating points. The heat pump uses a rotary compressor and operates with R290 (Propane). Each file contains data for one specific combination of sink and source temperature (e.g. B12W65). The compressor frequency was varied between 20 and 100 Hz. The attached presentation contains more information on the test bench and some data analysis. For a detailed description of the testbench we refer to the publication linked below.
