Abstract:
In order to study the feasibility of the application of ground source heat pump (GSHP) in greenhouses, experimental research on groundwater-style ground source heat pump system was carried out in greenhouse heating in Beijing. Experimental result showed that the coefficient of the system performance in greenhouse heating had reached 3.83 during the heating period of Oct.15, 2007-Mar.10, 2008, about 42% energy had been saved compare with conventional coal-fired hot water heating system, which its merits of energy-saving and greenhouse gases mitigating of the system were distinctive. The total electric consumption and the heating cost of the system was 0.15 kW·h/(m2·d) and 0.12 Yuan/(m2·d), respectively. The comparison among the heating systems of GSHP, natural gas, coal and light diesel oil were made, which the relative heating cost were 1.20, 1.31, 1.00 and 3.36, respectively, and the heating cost of ground source heat pump was higher than that of coal slightly, but was lower than that of natural gas and light diesel oil apparently.
