Solved: Suppose an ideal (Carnot) heat pump could be
Chapter , Problem 40(choose chapter or problem)
Suppose an ideal (Carnot) heat pump could be constructed. (a) Using Equation 12.15, obtain an expression for the coefficient of performance for such a heat pump in terms of Th and Tc. (b) Would such a heat pump work better if the difference in the operating temperatures were greater or were smaller? (c) Compute the coefficient of performance for such a heat pump if the cold reservoir is 50.0C and indoor temperature is 70.0C.
