Answer:
a) Ql=33120000 kJ
b) COP = 5.6
c) COPreversible= 29.3
Explanation:
a) of the attached figure we have:
HP is heat pump, W is the work supplied, Th is the higher temperature, Tl is the low temperature, Ql is heat supplied and Qh is the heat rejected. The worj is:
W=Qh-Ql
Ql=Qh-W
where W=2000 kWh
Qh=120000 kJ/h
[tex]Q_{l}=14days(\frac{24 h}{1 day})(\frac{120000 kJ}{1 h})-2000 kWh(\frac{3600 s}{1 h})=33120000 kJ[/tex]
b) The coefficient of performance is:
[tex]COP=\frac{Q_{h} }{W}=\frac{120000 kJ/h*14(\frac{24 h}{1 day}) }{2000 kWh(\frac{3600 s}{1 h}) } = 5.6[/tex]
c) The coefficient of performance of a reversible heat pump is:
[tex]COP_{reversible}=\frac{T_{h} }{T_{h}-T_{l} }[/tex]
Th=20+273=293 K
Tl=10+273=283K
Replacing:
[tex]COP_{reversible}=\frac{293}{293-283}=29.3[/tex]
