Problem 2:
A refrigerator has a coefficient of performance equal to 5. The refrigerator discards 150 J of heat into the high temperature
reservoir in each cycle. Find that the amount of heat the refrigerator absorbs from the cold reservoir during in each cycle.
A heat pump maintains a dwelling at 68°F. When operating steadily, the power input to the heat pump is 3 hp, and the heat pump
receives energy by heat transfer from 55°F well water at a rate of 500 Btu/min.
(a) Determine the coefficient of performance.
(b) Evaluating electricity at $0.08 per kWh, determine the cost of electricity in a month when the heat pump operates for 300 hours.
* Your answer is incorrect.
Determine the coefficient of performance.
y = i 82.25
A certain refrigerator has a coefficient of performance of 1.8. If this refrigerator absorbs 2.5x10^4 J of heat from the cold reservoir during each cyle, how much mechanical work is needed to run this refrigerator for each cyle? how much heat does the refrigerator dump into the hot reservoir during each cycle?
