heat pump library (v1.3)

About

Repository with code to

• build a database with relevant data from public Heatpump Keymark Datasets.
• identify efficiency parameters from the database with a least-square regression model, comparable to Schwamberger [1].
• simulate heat pump efficiency (COP) as well as electrical (P_el) & thermal power (P_th) and massflow (m_dot) as time series.

For the simulation, it is possible to calculate outputs of a specific manufacturer + model or alternatively for one of 6 different generic heat pump types.

What's changed in v.1.3

For speeding up simulations that use hplib in for loops or single time steps iterations a new HeatPump class was introduced including a optimized simulate() method. Further more, the hplib is now also capable of simulate the thermal cooling power and EER for heat pumps of group id 1 (air/water | regulated).

• Speedtest by @fastrockstar in #12
• Added cooling function parameters by @xihaui in #13
• Changed naming of output files by @xihaui in #14
• Added modus cooling for class heatpump by @xihaui in #15
