A heat pump is used to heat a building. The external temperature is lower than the internal temperature. The pump's coefficient of performance is 4.20, and the heat pump delivers 4.16 MJ as heat to the building each hour. If the heat pump is a Carnot engine working in reverse, at what rate must work be done to run it?
Homework Answers
COP = DESIRED EFFECT / WORK INPUT
4.2 = ( 4.16*1000000/3600)/ RATE OF WORK INPUT
RATE OF WORK INPUT = 275 W . Ans

earning Goal: To understand that a heat engine run backward is a heat pump that can be used as a refrigerator. By now you should be familiar with heat engines--devices, theoretical or actual, designed to convert heat into work. You should understand the following: Heat engines must be cyclical; that is, they must return to their original state some time after having absorbed some heat and done some work). Heat engines cannot convert heat into work without generating some waste...

6. An office building requires a heat transfer rate of 20 kW to maintain the inside temperature at 21°C when the outside temperature is 0°C. A vapor-compression heat pump with Refrigerant 134a as the working fluid is to be used to provide the necessary heating. The compressor operates adiabatically with an isentropic efficiency of 82%. Specify appropriate evaporator and condenser pressures of a cycle for this purpose assuming Δ1cond-Al evap-10°C, as shown below. The states are numbered as shown below....

4. A refrigeration unit operates in an inverted Carnot cycle. It receives from the surroundings (at 27°C) 10,000 kcal per hour. If the temperature inside the unit must be kept at -50°C, what is the power of the unit's engine (recall that power is P = W/t)? A Carnot engine is an idealized, reversible engine. In real life, it is found that you need to use an engine capable of producing 5.50 kW to run this unit. Express the efficiency...
