β¦ Synopsis
During the last decade, a number of studies have been conducted by various investigators in the design, modeling and testing of solar assisted heat pump systems (SAHPSs). This paper reviews the studies conducted on the energy and exergy analysis of SAHPS systems in Turkey and around the world as of the end of December 2004. The studies undertaken on the SAHPS systems are categorized into four groups as follows: (i) SAHPSs for water heating, (ii) SAHPSs with storage (conventional type) for space heating, (iii) SAHPSs with direct expansion for space heating, and (iv) Solar-assisted ground source heat pump greenhouse heating system (SAGSHPGHS). This paper investigates the studies on SAGSHPs, especially ground-source heat pumps, also known geothermal heat pumps, at the Turkish universities in more detail, by giving Turkey's solar energy potential.

Although the idea of using a solar collector as the evaporator in the traditional heat pump cycle was first proposed in the year 1955, studies on the subject began in the late 70s. One of the keystones for obtaining sustainable development is also the use of exergy analysis. In this regard, the main
The thermal performance of two different schemes of solar-assisted heat-pump systems has been theoretically studied. In first scheme, the evaporator of the heat pump is taken directly as the solar collecting plate and always maintained at the ambient temperature. As there is no heat loss from the co
A review of an energy and exergy analysis of the KTI 25 kW fuel cell system is described. This system consists of a fuel cell and a fuel processor. An examination of the system's integration concept is done with the aim of pinpointing the existing losses. The exergy calculations are performed with t
