New Status of Geothermal Heat Pump in Iran

Abstract

IN north parts of Iran the humidity and the temperature are very high for Four months (from beginning of June until end of September) and also the temperature is very low from five months (from beginning of November until end of March). In south parts of Iran the temperature and humidity are very high in eight months (from beginning of March until the end of October) but the temperature is not very high in other months. In high temperature and humidity air to air heat pumps have been used for cooling and these air to air heat pumps need lot of electricity so all of power plants have to work in full load condition.there are many projects for research about the ability of GHP for cooling and heating in four different conditions. Four GHPs had been installed in Meshkin Shahr, Rasht, Taleghan and Ahvaz. this paper are going to give a new figur from geothermal heat pump in IRAN including pilot projects and facyories
