Session description
This presentation introduces Johnson Controls’ latest generation of large-capacity heat pumps, developed over eight years to address the growing demand for high-efficiency, industrial-scale heating solutions. The new platform, based on screw compressor technology, delivers capacities ranging from 5 MW up to 24 MW and is specifically engineered for demanding applications such as district heating, waste heat recovery, and industrial processes.
A key focus of the development has been the optimization of compressor performance and system efficiency. The solution incorporates advanced features such as variable speed drives (VSD) for enhanced part-load performance, automatic variable internal volume ratio (VI) adjustment to ensure optimal compression across varying operating ...
