Brief Intro to Heat Pumps

The Heat Pump is a piece of equipment that utilizes a refrigeration cycle to cool or heat up a space.

COOLING MODE:

HEATING MODE:

Note: Not all Heat Pumps use air to reject the heat! Some use water and some sort of heat rejection equipment (condensing unit/cooling tower/fluid cooler...etc)

When a Heat Pump goes into "Heating" mode - it often can not keep up with the loads, thus most Heat Pumps have some sort of suppliment heating (strip resistive heater, geothermal or even boilers.

Have you ever seen a Heat Pump?

Below is a 2.5 Ton - Heat Pump (Air Source)

Here is another 4.0 Ton - Heat Pump (Air Source)

While it may be slightly bigger, the mechanics are exactly the same.

Shear Stress Due to Axial Loading

In this video I go through a simple problem where I determine the shear stress due to axial loading.

I was a little rushed in this video so forgive me if I sound a little distracted at times.
