A large heat pump should upgrade 5 MW of heat at 85°C to be delivered as heat at 150°C. Suppose the actual heat pump has a COP of 2.5. How much power is required to drive the unit? For the same COP, how high a high temperature would a Carnot heat pump have, assuming the same low T?

Respuesta :

Answer:

W=2 MW

Explanation:

Given that

COP= 2.5

Heat extracted from 85°C  

Qa= 5 MW

Lets heat supplied at 150°C   = Qr

The power input to heat pump = W

From first law of thermodynamics

Qr= Qa+ W

We know that COP of heat pump given as

[tex]COP=\dfrac{Qr}{W}[/tex]

[tex]2.5=\dfrac{5}{W}[/tex]

[tex]2.5=\dfrac{5}{W}[/tex]

W=2 MW

For Carnot heat pump

[tex]COP=\dfrac{T_2}{T_2-T_1}[/tex]

[tex]2.5=\dfrac{T_2}{T_2-(273+85)}[/tex]

2.5 T₂ -  895= T₂

T₂=596.66 K

T₂=323.6 °C
