Optimal heat rejection pressure of CO2 heat pump water heaters based on pinch point analysis

•The pinch effect considerably affects the optimal heat rejection pressure.•The optimal heat rejection pressure was underestimated by the commonly used model.•A new correlation of optimal pressure is proposed for CO2 heat pump water heaters. The control of heat rejection pressure is of great importa...
