The current investigation examines the experimental and energyconservation analyses of 17.5 kW cooling capacity of a groundsource heat pump (GSHP) system and an air-source airconditioning system (ASAC) of the same cooling capacity. Using experimental data and a sensitivity technique, the thermal efficiency of both the systems were evaluated. During the experiments conducted for cooling period in June 2022, the data for six-day operation were collected and the coefficient of performance of both the systems were evaluated. Notably, the GSHP system exhibited an average cooling capacity of 10 to 15 kW, whereas the ASAC maintained a range of 9 and 13 kW. The coefficient of performance (COP) for the GSHP system was obtained as 3.8, while the ASAC system COP was 2.9. The results indicate that the use of GSHP system results in an energysaving of 10–40% in comparison to the ASAC system. Moreover, the present study included uncertainty and propagation analyses, along with sensitivity evaluations, with the objective of identifying the most influencing parameter on the derived parameters. Sensitivity analysis indicates outlet temperature of air from the evaporator is the most influencing parameter for the performance of both the systems. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
