Problem 47HP

Consider the combination of a heat engine and a heat pump, as in Problem 5.41, with a low temperature of 400 K. What should the high temperature be so that the heat engine is reversible? For that temperature, what is the COP for a reversible heat pump?

Problem 5.41

Consider a heat engine and heat pump connected as shown in Fig. P5.41. Assume that TH1 = TH2 > Tamb and determine for each of the three cases if the setup satisfies the first law and/or violates the second law.
