To reduce greenhouse gas emissions and improve the performance of space heating systems
a transcritical CO

heat-pump heating system using an ejector and integrated mechanical subcooling (EJ-IMS) is proposed. A thermodynamic model of the system is developed with the coefficient of performance (COP) as the objective function
and the subcooling degree and discharge pressur
e are optimized. The winter heating performance of the system located in cities located in different climate zones was evaluated. The results show that the EJ-IMS system has a maximum COP
corresponding to the optimum subcooling degree and the optimum discharge pressure. The optimum subcooling degree is 26.44%-39.21% lower than that of the integrated mechanical subcooling system
and the optimum discharge pressure of the EJ-IMS system is 0.27%-9.37% lower than that of the baseline system and ejector system. The COP and exergetic efficiency of the EJ-IMS system are 6.09%-37.74% and 6.75%-46.02% higher than those of the three conventional systems
respectively. The heating seasonal performance factor of the EJ-IMS system is 6.89%-29.61% higher than those of the three systems
indicating that the EJ-IMS system is suitable in cold regions. This study provides a theoretical reference for the construction of efficient CO
