Paris,

  You are on the right track. There are a number of other heat pump 
models available in the TESS HVAC library; like Type143 they too will 
give you COP as a function of entering conditions. They differ from 
Type143 in that the Type143 external performance data file is for a 
specific heat pump capacity while the heat pumps in the TESS library 
have normalized performance data files and the heat pump capacity is 
entered as parameters to the model.

kind regards,

  David
