Researcher: Benjamin Beauchamp
This research focuses on determining which configuration of the existing models of Solar Assisted Heat Pumps (SAHP) would hold the most promise for building integration in Canada. This work is being done in partnership with NRCAN, with the goal being to assess technologies for their potential to provide ultra-efficient heating.
A simplified model of each configuration being researched was inputted into excel, allowing for direct comparison and determining which model has the most potential. At which point the research will move into TRNSYS for more detailed modelling.
