Description
Poor design of heat pump systems for residential buildings leads to increased costs and faltering market penetration. Using Systematic Process Intensification (SPrInt) methodology, we integrate the operating behavior of heat pumps already in the design process. This allows us to identify optimal heat pump systems for existing buildings which accelerate the heat pump to overtake boilers towards a sustainable building sector. You wonder how fast we really are already? Take a look at the SPrInt like Forrest Pump.
