How Do Heat Pumps Work?
An aerothermal heat pump, also known as an air-source heat pump, works by extracting heat from the outdoor air and transferring it indoors to provide heating or cooling. Here's the breakdown:
Heat Absorption: The process begins with the outdoor unit of the heat pump, which contains coils filled with a refrigerant fluid. A fan draws in outdoor air over these coils. Even in cold weather, there is heat energy present in the outdoor air, and the refrigerant absorbs this heat through a process called evaporation.
Compression: The refrigerant, now in a gaseous state and carrying the absorbed heat energy, is compressed by a compressor located within the outdoor unit. Compression raises the temperature and pressure of the refrigerant, making it even hotter.
Heat Exchange: The hot, pressurized refrigerant is then pumped into the indoor unit, where it passes through a condenser coil. In heating mode, the refrigerant releases its heat energy to the indoor space, warming it up. In cooling mode, the process is reversed, and the heat from indoors is absorbed by the refrigerant and released outdoors.
Expansion Valve: After the heat exchange process, the refrigerant passes through an expansion valve, which reduces its pressure and temperature, preparing it to absorb more heat from the outdoor air and continue the cycle.
Circulation: The refrigerant cycles continuously between the indoor and outdoor units, absorbing heat from the outdoor air and releasing it indoors during heating mode, or vice versa during cooling mode.
