=) The structure of a house is such that it loses heat at a rate of 5400 kJ/h per °C difference between the indoors and outdoors. A heat pump that requires a power input of 6 kW is used to maintain this house temperature at 21°C. Examine the lowest outdoor temperature for which the heat pump can meet the heating requirements of this house and sketch a simple schematic diagram for the heat pump complete with the value of energy, its direction, and temperature reading of both indoors and outdoors.
