The subject of this thesis was the deep studying of using heating systems based on heat pump technology and design of the heating system for water supply treatment plant building in Russian Federation. In spite of the big positive experience in European countries the heat pump technology is not widely spread as an alternative way of producing heat energy in Russian Federation. Moreover there is no experience of using this technology for such industrial buildings as water supply treatment plant, wastewater treatment plants and other industrial buildings where this technology might become one of the most suitable and economically reasonable. The role of this thesis is to show that this technology can be used as economically reasonable and environmentally friendly way of producing heat energy for the heating purposes for different types of industrial buildings.
The thesis presents the short heat pump history helps to understand the process of appearance and development of this technology, and those economical and environmental problems, which became a cause of appearance of heat pump technology. The needed calculations to design the heating system and to estimate capital and operation costs of installation and using this technology were made.
The calculations helped to prove that the heat pump technology in combination with good thermal insulation of the building envelope shows very good results of economical effectiveness of its using. And the existent problem of careless consumption of fossil fuel to produce heat energy in Russian Federation might be solved by reducing the fuel consumption as a result of using heat pump technology, which has high energy efficiency and much more lower consumption of primary fuel.
