Meanwhile, along with the development of society and the improvement of living standard of people, the requirements of the catering industry on kitchen environment and equipment are gradually improved. Steam agers, sterilizer, air conditioner and food refrigerated cabinet etc. often set up independently in traditional kitchen, and the function is comparatively single, and often is full of steam and oil smoke in the kitchen, are difficult to satisfy modern kitchen to the urgent demand of multi-functional integrality, high-efficient energy-saving nature and travelling comfort.
In view of this current situation, heat pump technology is attracting attention as an efficient energy conversion technology. Under the drive of electric energy, the hot end of the heat pump can provide heat energy, and the cold end can realize refrigeration, so that the heat pump has good energy utilization efficiency, but the current heat pump system cannot reasonably utilize the cold energy generated by the cold end. Therefore, the development of the efficient heat pump system integrating the functions of refrigeration, heating (steam) and waste heat recovery can not only meet the multifunctional requirements of kitchen equipment, but also greatly improve the energy utilization efficiency, reduce the carbon emission of a kitchen, accord with the current policy guidance of energy conservation and emission reduction, and provide powerful support for the sustainable development of the catering industry.
