Abstract
Various examples include a device for increasing the heat yield of a heat source comprising: a heat sink; a heat pump with a condenser and an evaporator; and the heat source. The heat sink includes a heat sink feed and a heat sink return providing thermal coupling to the heat source with a heat exchanger. The heat source includes a heat source feed and a heat source return for thermal coupling to the heat sink with the heat exchanger. The condenser of the heat pump is thermally coupled to the heat sink feed to dissipate heat to the heat sink. The evaporator of the heat pump is thermally coupled to the heat source return downstream of the heat exchanger to absorb heat.
