A series of tests were performed to verify the transient characteristics of heat pump in heating and cooling mode when operating speed was varied over the 30 to 102Hz. One of the major issues that has not been addressed so far is transientcharacteristics during speed modulation. The model for cycle simulation has been developed to predict the cycle performance under conditions of increasing drive frequency and the results of the theoretical study were compared with the results of theexperimental study. The simulated results were in good agreement with the experimental result within 10%. The transient cycle migration of the liquid state refrigerant causes significant dynamic change in system. Thus, the migration of refrigerant was the most important factor whenever do experimental results analysis or develop simulation model.
