An ideal vapor-compression heat pump cycle with Refrigerant 134a as the working fluid provides 15 kW to maintain a building at 200°C when the outside temperature is 50°c. Saturated vapor at 2.4 bar leaves the evaporator, and saturated liquid at 8 bar leaves the condenser. Calculate (a) The power input to the compressor, in kW (b) The coefficient of performance. (c) The coefficient of performance of a reversible heat pump cycle operating between thermal reservoirs at 20 and 50°c. (h, = 244.09ki/kg, s, = 0.9222 kJ/kg – K; h2 = 268.97 kJ/ kg; h, = 93.42 kJ/ kg)
