A heat pump is under consideration for heating a research

Chapter 5, Problem 5.60

(choose chapter or problem)

A heat pump is under consideration for heating a research station located on an Antarctica ice shelf. The interior of the station is to be kept at \(15^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\). Determine the maximum theoretical rate of heating provided by a heat pump, in kW per kW of power input, in each of two cases: The role of the cold reservoir is played by (a) the atmosphere at \(-20^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\), (b) ocean water at \(5^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\).
