A cold store maintains storage air temperature of minus 23°C in an ambient temperature of 27"C. The plant has evaporating and condensing temperature of minus 30°C and 40°C and consumes 2kW of power. Assuming the refrigeration plant possess a Carnot efficiency of 50%, what is the cooling load of the store.
