[@davidjessop2279]

Are you being ironic? We face a future of climate chaos and ecosystem collapse, and you think you live in great times? Geothermal energy is energy taken from the Earth's core, it comes from heat generated during the original formation of the planet and the radioactive decay of materials, and is not green in any way. Just because it doesn't cause CO2 emmissions some shallow thinkers imagine it's part of the solution to global heating, it isn't, it's part of the problem, and while fossil fuels are being phased out geothermal is expanding because simple non thinkers imagine it's green. Just repeating low carbon is a mantra to reassure those scared of the consequences of climate change. Dream on.

I’m 36 and have been an HVACR tech for 17 years now. Heat pumps have come a long way. I don’t care who says what they are very practical and efficient. Check out the Mitsubishi Hi-2 versions. They give you 100% heat capacity at 5 degrees Fahrenheit and 95% heat capacity at -15 degrees Fahrenheit!!! That’s insane.

They use electricity to move refrigerant, which carries or "pumps" heat from inside to outside or vice-versa. That takes a lot less energy than creating heat.

[@faustinpippin9208]

yea but i think that the part at: 6:22 is misleading for people who just learn about this stuff from my personal logic/understanding the expansion valve just maintains the two different pressure zones and its not the thing that actually turns liquid into vapor I'm pretty sure that its the pressure drop doing that, and the pressure drop is caused by the compressor but this is just my logic and maybe im just nitpicking... anywa, the video is great

[@JohnFekoloid]

I live in the tropics. Never heard of heat pumps. But imagined it to be a 'reverse' AC unit. Very helpful explanation. Thanks

[@lisajohnson8566]

Best explaination of the air to air system I have ever seen. I have 40 years in the HVAC system and I'm so tired of the "advertising" of the heat pump takes "heat" out of the ambient air outside and transfers it to heat in the house. When it's 10F degrees outside there is no heat there but when I try to explain the heat comes from the compression of the refridgerant out of the compressor I'm told I'm always wrong and even by some of the current crop of HVAC mechanics. I definitely subscribed and liked and will refer doubting Thomas's to your video!

[@christophecamp2335]

When is 10°f, there's 10°out there. The phase change takes place anywhere north of -15°f, so it's definitely taking heat from the outside. You can test this by putting thermometers in front of and behind your outdoor unit.

[@lisajohnson8566]

Respectfully Chris you're wrong. And what am I gonna do with 10 degrees in a house I'm trying to get to let's say 70? Take your time and figure out what is going on. You'll figure it out and don't just buy the hype of the heat pump. There is a reason modern thermostats let you select an OAT to not activate the heat pump and use Aux heat instead. Just figure out what you have and what you're trying to do. I promise you the light will go on and you'll respond I'm right. I've been in the business way too long my friend.

[@michaelhuizenga2092]

@@lisajohnson8566Ask yourself how AC works, how can you make 90 air into 45 degree air that cools your house to 65 degrees on a hot summer day? It’s an energy transfer, and each system fluid has different levels of efficiency. This is why a harmful chemical like Freon is used. It can swing over 200 degrees between phases and pressures, whereas water cannot get cold without freezing, so your band is smaller. Efficiency will kill an H2O A/C.

[@michaelhuizenga2092]

@@lisajohnson8566Additionally, Freon can go as cold as -25 to -55 degrees, which is colder than a cold day, so the needed heat transfer can still exist. The reason AC is much more efficient than heat pumps is the difference in temperatures. The hot Freon is much hotter than outside whereas the cold Freon is only a little colder than the outside cold. Think in terms of relativity and energy transfer more than temperature transfer, which if that was the case, a/c’s would not work and nor would heat pumps.

[@dougiequick1]

I worked in aerospace and the facility I worked at had many large buildings and lots of workers ....they did not use conventional HVAC they had a central plant that made steam and also water to all the buildings ....chilled water and air movement kept those building CHILL all summer long and the steam lines kept it all toasty in the cold months and provided hot water ...I was always amazed how well it all worked

[@Dan-qt7kq]

I’ve been fascinated by this process because it’s in a closed loop, I know a high pressure side and low pressure side, but flipping them is brilliant.

[@martinlucas8274]

Yep, it is fascinating. I just cannot get my head around how on earth it is more efficient than the water tank with a simple heating rod inside. Pushing the coolant (R134a) in your car costs you approx 10% of the total fuel consumption and some considerable power if you have petrol engine 1.1 litre. Even the most typical fridge-freezer - the compressor is using about 500W - to cool 20 deg celsius in maybe 0.5m3 I am not convinced this system is able to produce 70 celsius on even one small radiator and deliver hot water (52Celsius) to the taps. Have the thermodynamic laws changed recently?

[@MukhtarLeker]

I've been looking for a simple explanation like this. The only way this could be better is if you showed an example of the physical devices for the indoor and outdoor units or parts. And thanks for the great video!

[@deankay4434]

I used the exact solenoid with a high flow rate as the fluid pushes down on the oversized valve land for sealing at static pressure. But mine is on an oil accumulator to pre-lube a gas V-8 engine. It is energized with the key on so during starting, it quickly floods the main oil gallery (High-Flow, 1/2" NPT, Viton Rubber Seal; New surplus at 1/10th the cost of Name Brand oil accumulator companies; with pressurized oil to the bearings. This would greatly extend the life of all "Stop-Start" engines in those vehicles. After being an ASE Master Tech since 78, I will argue a room of engineers under the table! 5,000hrs is the 150,000 mile equivalent that GM designs parts, materials and still make them to keep from paying CAFE a fine.

Second law of thermodynamics, with every exchange, our energy storage, is becoming more and more diffuse and less and less usable. I'd imagine you could surround your heat pumps, with other heat pumps, until there was no usable energy left and it was requiring more energy to drive the pump, than was being extracted.

if they were all so magically efficient As everyone says they are, they would already be in all new homes. But they're not because they're more complex, have more parts, function poorly in outside temp extremes and are literally a pipe dream at this point.

[@hardcard254]

Mine is between 360-420% efficient, depending on how cold it is outside and how high of a flow temperature I need. I didn't pull these numbers out of a datasheet, they come from electric consumption and heat output monitoring... they're as real as they get. For every kWh of electricity it uses, my heat pump provides between 3,6 - 4,2kWh of heat. Granted, we don't live in Canada, Scandinavia or Siberia, we do get below 0ºC temps, but nothing as crazy as -20 or -40ºC This "pipe dream" has been keeping our home at a comfy 21-23ºC and providing domestic hot water all winter. The running cost is less than half of what we used to spend with our oil boiler, the level of comfort is miles better, thanks to increased flow rate and constant operation. Also, fyi, heat pumps, solar thermal, etc. are already mandatory for new buildings in some countries. The main problem I see with heat pumps is that many installers and sales people either have no clue or are dishonest. They charge twice or thrice as much as they should, they sell you criminally oversized machines, they insist on putting in a buffer tank and secondary pumps when there's no need in many cases (and it's counterproductive, even)...

Everything is relative. Water boils at 212 degrees F at sea level pressure which is 14.7 psi. Have seen it boil in a vacuum at room temperature and it can boil at hundreds of degrees in a high pressure boiler. This is the basis of a refrigeration system. By manipulating temperatures and pressures you can force a refrigerant to either evaporate or condense which will either absorb or release heat. Basically using a refrigerant to transfer heat from one area and release it in another area.

[@kaan2215]

I don't understand one thing. The most common refrigerators such as R32 and R410A, have a boiling temperature at around -50 degree Celcius. Let's assume that the indoor temperature is 30 C and outdoor temperature is 30 C too. And we want to cool the place. How is it possible that the temperature of the refrigerant increases in the evaporator and drops in the condenser? In the evaporator, the refrigerant exchanges heat with the indoor air(30 C) and it warms. In the condenser, the refrigerant exchanges heat with the outdoor air(30 C) and it cools and condensed. How can you drop the temperature of the refrigerant to -50 degree C using the 30-degree C air? That's against the thermodynamics rules.

[@Howie875]

@@kaan2215 Get a pressure temperature chart for R-22 and follow along. I am going to use Farenheight. R-22, at 14.7 pounds pressure (atmospheric), has a boiling temp of around -13 degrees. Let's go thru a complete refrigeration cycle in a comfort AC system with 90 degrees ambient, 75 degrees in the conditioned space, a high side pressure of 250 psig, and a low side pressure of 65 psig. The compressor will compress the refrigerant to a high pressure, high temperature gas, and in this example of a high side pressure of 250 psig, its condensing temperature is 117 degrees. Now the condenser fan runs cooler 90-degree air over the condenser coil and cools this refrigerant below the 117 condensing temperature forcing the refrigerant to condense. This change of state, from a gas to a liquid, releases a large amount of heat, called latent heat. This refrigerant then leaves the condenser at basically the same pressure but now is a medium temperature liquid. This refrigerant then enters the evaporator thru an expansion device, which induces a pressure drop. In this example we now have a 65 PSIG evaporator coil, and at that pressure R-22 evaporates at around 37.5 degrees and it is forced to evaporate, and this change of state absorbs a large amount of BTU's from the warmer 75-degree room air that is passing over the evaporator coil. We are now left will low pressure, low temperature gas that goes back to the compressor to start our cycle all over again. It completely follows and can be explained by the laws of thermodynamics. Please let me know if there is something you don't understand and I can help you with it.

[@Howie875]

@@kaan2215 Its actual simple. Get a pressure temperature chart and follow along. We are going to use Fahrenheit and R-22 in a comfort air conditioning scenario, with 90 degree outside air and a 75 degree inside air, with a 250 PSIG high side pressure and a 65 PSIG low side pressure. Starting at the compressor, it compresses a low temperature, low pressure gas to a high temperature, high pressure gas and discharges this gas thru the hot gas line to the condenser at 250 PSIG .The condensing temperature of refrigerant at that pressure for R-22 is 117 degrees, and as the cooler outside 90-degree air passes over the condenser coil it cools the refrigerant below its condensing temperature and forces it to condense. This change of state, from a gas to a liquid, releases a tremendous amount of heat, called latent heat. We are now left with a high pressure, medium temperature liquid that leaves the condenser thru the liquid line and then enters the evaporator thru an expansion device, which induces a pressure loss and, in this example, leaves us with a 65 PSIG evaporator coil. R-22 at this pressure evaporates at around 37.5 degrees and since room air passing over the coil is 75 degrees this forces the refrigerant to evaporate. Again, a change of state, this time from a liquid to a gas, now absorbs a large amount of heat (from the room air) and now we are left with a low temperature, low pressure gas that returns to the compressor to start the whole refrigeration cycle over again. Completely follows and is explained by the laws of thermodynamics.

[@kaan2215]

@@Howie875 So is it all about pressure? We manipulate boiling and condensing temperatures by changing pressure?

[@Howie875]

@@kaan2215Mostly about manipulating refrigerant to the proper pressures but then you also have to then manipulate the refrigerant temperature to then change its state from a liquid to a gas ( or vice versa) to complete this process.

I apologize if this is mentioned somewhere in the video and I just missed it but I feel like its important to explain that the boiling point of the refrigerant mentioned was at atmospheric pressure. As pressure changes boiling point does too. 410a in an evaporator coil is usually at a boiling point between 36°f and 50°f this is why we get air in the 40-60 range leaving the coil.

[@Goreuncle]

6:43 The hot water tank doesn't feed the radiators, if it did, it would run out of hot water in a matter of minutes. Keep in mind that heat pumps have high flow rate, they move over 600 liters of water per hour. A heat pump needs between 30 - 90 minutes to heat up a 200 liter water tank. If you moved all the water in the tank through the radiator circuit 3+ times per hour, the heat pump wouldn't be able to keep up with the dissipation rate. DHW tanks for heat pumps aren't heated directly, a "serpentine" (spiral heat exchanging pipe) is used to heat the water in the tank, so there's an efficiency penalty. Some tanks also come with auxiliary heating elements (resistors), which help speed up the heating process, but this comes at the cost of doubling electric consumption, which defeats the purpose of having a heat pump. So, basically, the heat pump needs to feed the radiator circuit directly, for best results. This is achieved by using a 3-way electrovalve, which is installed between the heat pump and everything else. This electrovalve diverts the ouflowing hot water from the heat pump to either the radiator circuit or the water tank's internal "serpentine", as needed. It's an "either or" kind of system, it won't do both DHW and radiator heating at the same time.
