ABSTRACT Dharkar, Supriya P. M.S.M.E, Purdue University, August, 2015. CO2 Heat Pumps for Commercial Building Applications with Simultaneous Heating and Cooling Demand. Major Professor: Eckhard A. Groll, School of Mechanical Engineering Many commercial buildings, including data centers, hotels and hospitals, have a simultaneous heating and cooling demand depending on the season, occupation and auxiliary equipment. A data center on the Purdue University, West Lafayette campus is used as a case study. The electrical equipment in data centers produce heat, which must be removed to prevent the equipment temperature from rising to a certain level. With proper integration, this heat has the potential to be used as a cost-effective energy source for heating the building in which the data center resides or the near-by buildings. The proposed heat pump system utilizes carbon dioxide with global warming potential of 1, as the refrigerant. System simulations are carried out to determine the feasibility of the system for a 12-month period. In addition, energy, environmental and economic analyses are carried out to show the benefits of this alternative technology when compared to the conventional system currently installed in the facility. Primary energy savings of ~28% to ~61%, a payback period of 3 to 4.5 years and a decrease in the environmental impact value by ~36% makes this system an attractive option. The results are then extended to other commercial buildings. xiiPDF Image | CO2 HEAT PUMPS FOR COMMERCIAL BUILDING APPLICATIONS
