Muhammad and Hamidreza,

  Hamidreza's approach is the correct one, I think. I have written 2 
variable speed heat pump models, which will be included in a new TESS 
Libraries eventually. One is an air-to-air heat pump and the other is an 
air-to-water heat pump. I do not have a water-to-air version written. 
They can be made available for sale as individual components if you are 
interested. Both of the components essentially use the same methodology 
that Hamidreza described.

kind regards,

  David
