An inventor claims to have a solar powered heat pump that receives energy as heat from the sun at the rate of 10 kW and extracts energy as heat from the environment at the rate of 7 kW. This system does not require any shaft or electrical power input. If you think this device is impossible, explain why using basic principles to support your argument. If you think it might be possible, what would be the steady-state rate of transfer of energy as heat to the house? (Assume TH = 20 Cand TL = -15 C).
heat pump with a coefficient of performance of 2.5 supplies energy to a house at a rate of 60,000 Btu/h. Determine (a) the electric pwer drawn by the heat pump and (b) the rate of heat absoption from the outside air.
A heat pump keeps the house at 20°C while the ambient (outside) temperature is 0°C. from the roof and The heat loss from the walls is 3000 kJ/h per degree temperature difference between the indoor and outdoor environment. Determine the minimum theoretical power in kW required to operate the heat pump.
A heat pump is used to extract heat from the outside atmosphere to heat the inside of a building. On a day when the outside air temperature is Tc°C, the heat pump is operating to a COP of 2.7, maintaining the inside temperature of the building at Th°C. If the building is losing heat at the rate of 62,893 kJ/hour in these conditions, determine how much power (kW) must be supplied to a heat pump.
A tank containing 200 kg of water was used as a constant temperature heat bath. How long would it take to heat the bath from 20°C to 25°C with a 250-W immersion heater? Neglect the heat capacity of the tank frane and any heat loss to the air. 3.2 hrs 3.7 hrs 4.6 hrs 4.9 hrs 5.8 hrs
An air conditioning unit works by taking heat out of a room. As the refrigerant gas expands in the cooling coils, it absorbs heat from the circulating air in the room. This heat is then released as the refrigerant is compressed by the part of the unit that is directed out of the room. The unit serves like a heat pump for the room. Since a refrigerator works in a similar manner, can it also be used inside a room? Justify your answer.
