@robs Regarding the November operation as attached, the DT is increased to 8C to get 9kW at the flow of 16 l/min with both compressors. Mitsubishi o...
@robs Thank you. Interesting! I presume that the switch from 20 l/min to 15 l/min was made automatically by the heat pump, and not manually, to effec...
@robs Thank you for this. I attach a graph from the change you made. It is very interesting that you have reduced the flow to broaden the DT as this ...
@trebor12345 I will give you a quick simple explanation using the same diagram in non-defrost mode. Heat pumps work by extracting energy from the ai...

I need to temper my previous statement. This Daikin is running a very high room temperature of 23C which means the flow temperature is too high for a ...
@jamespa These COP curves might explain something else that was puzzling me. Although the Daikin is running continuously at 1.6kW, its COP is not as g...
@jamespa @robs @trebor 12345 Attached is a more detailed power table. CAP and IPT are nominal integrated capacity and input power with defrost corre...
