- Estimate the annual operating cost for a heat pump that delivers 30,000 BTU per hour of heat during winter and a similar rate of cooling during summer. Assume the heat pump operates 8 hours per day for 120 days in summer, and 12 hours per day for 120 days in winter. The Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio (SEER) for summer cooling is 16 BTU/Wh, and the Heating Season Performance Factor (HSPF) for winter heating is 12 BTU/Wh. The cost of electricity is $0.20/kWh.arrow_forwardb) On a winter day when the average outdoor temperature remains at about 4°C, the house is estimated to lose heat at a rate of 62,000 kJ/h. For this reason a Carnot heat pump is used to heat a house and maintain it at 23°C. If the heat pump consumes 6 kW of power while operating, determine (a) how long the hecat pump ran on that day: (b) the amount of heat removed from surounding (Q.); and (c) the total heating costs, assuming an average price of 6.5¢/kWh for electricity (d) the heating cost for the day if res istance heating is used instead of a heat pump assuming an average price of 6.5¢/kWh for clectricity.arrow_forwardThermodynamics: A refrigeration unit using Refrigerant-134a is used to maintain a certain space at –15°C. The condenser rejects heat (?H) to cooling water that enters the condenser at 15°C at a rate of 0.2 kg/s and leaves at 35°C (all as saturated liquid water). The superheated refrigerant enters the condenser at 0.8 MPa and 40°C and leaves as a saturated liquid at the same temperature. If the compressor consumes 4.5 kW of power, determine (a) the mass flow rate of the refrigerant, (b) the refrigeration load (?̇L), (c) the COP.arrow_forward
