I have the electricity consumption profile of a reversible heat pump covering 1 year. The heat pump datasheet contains the SEER and HSPF.
I also know the thermostat setpoint for the building as well as the ambient temperature for each day in the electricity consumption profile.
I will like to know how to obtain the thermal profile considering that COP changes with temperature ?
Basically you should estimate the amount of heating demand/cooling demand as well as hourly heating/cooling profile of the buidling by the setpoint and ambient temperatures.
These give you the heat and cool supply of your heatpump and by using the electricty consumption of the heat pump you would be able to estimate the COP of the heatpump for heating or cooling mode.
there is a shortest way which is finding the corresponding COP from Charactersitic curve of the heatpump based on the supply and ambient temperatures of the set operation points.
