Refrigerant-134a enters the condenser of a residential heat pump at 800 kPa and 35°C at a rate of 0.018 kg/s and leaves at 800 kPa as a saturated liquid. If the compressor consumes 1.2 kW of power, determine (a) the COP of the heat pump and (b) the rate of heat absorption from the outside air.
In a vapor-compression refrigeration heat pump cycle with Refrigerant 134a as the working fluid provides heating at a rate of 15 kW to maintain a building at 20 °C year-round. During the heating mode in the winter, the outside temperature is 5 °C. It is also used for cooling in the summer when outside temperature is 34 °C. Saturated vapor at 2.4 bar leaves the evaporator and superheated vapor at 8 bar leaves the compressor. There is no significant heat...
