[TRNSYS-users] PV Powered electrical heat pump

Guangzhao,
   You will find various heat pump models (air-to-air, water-to-air, 
air-to-water, and water-to-water) in the TESS HVAC Library. I would 
recommend running your Type56 building in temperature level control 
instead of letting it calculate cooling load. You'll need a thermostat 
model to turn on and off the heat pump but then your heat pump model 
will report the required power, which you can match up to your PV array 
output. You may need some battery storage in case your cooling load does 
not match up perfectly with the electricity supplied by your PV.
Kind regards,
  David
