Heatpump with two inputs -> 1 COP instead of 2 efficencies #180

Closed mstich0 closed 2 years ago

mstich0 commented 2 years ago

Concerning the heatpump component which has two inputs (one for electricity / one for low temperature heat):

Right now the component is set up with two efficiencies in "efficiency 1"- field so if I want to have a COP of 4 I need no set it as [0.25, 0.75]. It would be great if we would only have 1 value-input for efficiency (or better the COP!) and out of that calculate the two conversion factors.

Would it be possible to do the calculation inside the component? So for COP=4 as input calculating: =[1/COP , (COP-1)/COP]
=[1/4 , (4-1)/4] =[0.25, 0.75]

We would then only need to provide 2 efficiencies for CHP then, right?

mstich0 commented 2 years ago

yes for the fix chp we would still need two efficiencies.
