Working Principle Air source heat pumps work based on the “reverse Carnot” principle, which involves the absorption of heat from the air to produce hot water through a compressor system. The specific process is as follows: Low-pressure gaseous refrigerant enters the compressor and becomes a high-temperature, high-pressure gas after compression. The high-boiling refrigerant enters the

1. Definition and Working Principle of Heat Pumps A heat pump is an energy-efficient device that converts low-grade thermal energy into high-grade thermal energy. Its working principle is based on the reverse Carnot cycle, which involves the cooperation of four main components: the compressor, condenser, expansion valve, and evaporator. These components use a small amount
