To maintain a dwelling steadily at 68°F on a day when the outside temperature is 30°F, heating must be provided at an average rate of 300 Btu/min. Determine the electrical power required, in kW, to deliver the heating using: (a) electrical-resistance heating, (b) a heat pump whose coefficient of performance is 3.5, (c) a reversible heat pump operating between hot and cold reservoirs at 68°F and 30°F, respectively.

Part A Determine the electrical power required, in kW, to deliver the heating using electrical-resistance heating. Wa i Save for Later kW Attempts: 0 of 4 used Submit Answer
A heat pump with a coefficient of performance of 3.5 provides energy at an average rate of 70,000 kJ/h to maintain a building at 20 deg C on a day when the outside temperature is -5 deg C. If electricity costs 8.5 cents per kWh, (a) determine the actual operating cost and the minimum theoretical operating cost, each in $/day. (b) compare the results of part (a) with the cost of electrical-resistance heating.
