Abstract
In recent years, the ultra-low-temperature district heating (ULTDH) systems has been developed to further reduce the heat loss in the district heating network. In this paper, on the basis of the ULTDH system, a double-loop booster heat pump (DLBHP) system used for terminal heating is proposed to improve the uniformity of temperature difference and heat transfer efficiency. The building heat load in Beijing was simulated using DEST software, and then the heating simulation model of the DLBHP was established through the TRNSYS software simulation platform. By changing the various control strategies on the heat source side and the heat sink side, the optimization of the operation and control strategies and the system performance were analyzed. The simulation results indicate that compared with the traditional operation modes, the system average COP with optimized control strategy can be increased by up to 9.24 %, and the power saving during the heating season can be up to 1389 kW·h. It can satisfy the real-time heat load demand of users, and has a large energy-saving potential as well as a broad market application prospect.
