A heat pump with a COP of 7.5 is connected to a car in North-Canada, which is maintained at a constant temperature of 15°C. The pump uses an input power of 10 W. The owner of the car drives from North-Canada to Florida – where the outside temperature is 45°C. The owner switches on the car air conditioner to maintain the car temperature at 15°C
d) Draw the diagram of the air conditioner and the car.
e) To maintain the car temperature of 15°C requires the removal of 250 W of excess heat – calculate the COP of the car air conditioner required for the minimum input power, and calculate that minimum power.

We propose to heat a house in the winter with a heat pump. The house is to be maintained at 20°C at all times. When the ambient temperature outside drops to -10°C, the rate at which heat is lost from the house is estimated to be 25 kW. What is the minimum electrical power (in kW) required to drive the heat pump? Use the correct sign convention to indicate the direction of work. Hint: the minimum power happens with the...

A heat pump is used to heat a house and maintain it at 24°C. On a winter day when the outdoor air temperature is -5°C (negative value), the house is estimated to lose heat at a rate of 80,000 kJ/h. Determine the minimum power required to operate this heat pump if heat is extracted from (a) the outdoor air at -4 oC and (b) the well water at 12C.
