SUMMARY

Heat pump operates on the principle of vapor compression cycle. This cycle called closed cycle. In this
cycle, the circulation substance is physically separated from the heat source and heat delivery, and is
cycling in closed system. In the evaporator, heat extracted from the heat source to boils the substance.
The phase took part is from liquid-vapor mixture to saturated vapor. Then the circulating substance is
compressed by the compressor, raising its pressure and temperature because of space to volatile is less.
Then, the heat is then transferred to the condenser to release the heat and drops the temperature and
pressure. At this stage, phase changes from superheated vapor affected by the compressor turn to
saturated liquid. The pressure of the circulating substance is reduced back to the evaporator condition
in the throttling valve or expansion device.
