Analytical and experimental studies were performed on a direct-expansion solar-assisted heat pump (DX-SAHP) water heating system, in which a 2 m(2) bare flat collector acts as a source as well as an evaporator for the refrigerant. A simulation model was developed to predict the long-term thermal performance of the system approximately. The monthly averaged COP was found to vary between 4 and 6, while the collector efficiency ranged from 40 to 60%. The simulated results were used to obtain an optimum design of the system and to determinate a proper strategy for system operating control. The effect of various parameters, including solar insolation, ambient temperature, collector area, storage volume and speed of compressor, had been investigated on the thermal performance of the DX-SAHP system, and the results had indicated that the system performance is governed strongly by the change of solar insolation, collector area and speed of compressor. The experimental results obtained under winter climate conditions were shown to agree reasonably with the computer simulation. Copyright (C) 2003 John Wiley Sons, Ltd.
