Abstract: Various methods of capacity modulation of electric motor driven heat pumps have been reviewed with a particular emphasis on variable-speed motors. The effect on the steady-state performance of the heat pump, of variation in the externally-controllable independent parameters, while the compressor speed or the evaporator heat transfer area was adjusted, has been studied experimentally. Based on these results some control algorithms have been proposed.
