Study shows that both the water mass flow rate and inlet temperature have significant effect on the system performances. Test results show that the effect of evaporator water mass flow rate on the system performances and water outlet temperatures is more pronounced (COP increases by 0.6 for 1 kg/min) compared to that of gas cooler water mass flow rate (COP increases by 0.4 for 1 kg/min) and the effect of gas cooler water inlet temperature is more significant (COP decreases by 0.48 for given range) compared to that of evaporator water inlet temperature (COP increases by 0.43 for given range). Comparisons of experimental values with simulated results show the maximum deviation of 5% for cooling capacity, 10% for heating capacity and 16% for system COP.}, type={Artykuły / Articles}, title={Operating characteristics of transcritical CO2 heat pump for simultaneous water cooling and heating}, URL={http://journals.pan.pl/Content/94368/PDF/02_paper.pdf}, doi={10.2478/v10173-012-0026-8}, keywords={CO2 heat pump, Water cooling and heating, experiment, simulation, Performance characteristics}, }
