Interesting data. Assuming a difference between the intake air sensor and the actual OAT of 2C, and that 600W is contributed from sources other than...
I would say for sure assuming it connects to the heat pump controller.
Many, if not most/all, ASHPs have their own tank sensor. Unlike the immersion thermostat it is analog not on/off so that the ASHP knows the actual te...
Good luck and no rush. Any new measurements that are made will be easier to interpret when it gets colder anyway.
AIT (air intake temperature) and energy will correlate well whatever the IAT is not least because the heat pump controller reacts to AIT alone and the...
Unless the IAT was in fact 19 when you did the energy vs OAT curve, we need to correct for that!
It looked bigger on the charts you posted recently, perhaps more like 2-3 C The difference does make a fair difference to some of the calculations p...
This confuses me. Do I correctly recall that your heat pump (and more importantly OAT sensor) is in a bit of a well so the OAT sensor doesn't measure...
