A reversible heat pump maintains a refrigerator at 0°C while rejecting heat to the surroundings at 25°C. The heat removal rate is 1440 kJ/min. The COP and work input are determined. An ice plant uses a reversed Carnot cycle heat pump to produce 15 tonnes of ice per day from water at 0°C to ice at 0°C, rejecting heat to the atmosphere at 25°C. This heat pump is coupled to a Carnot engine absorbing heat at 220°C and rejecting it to the atmosphere. The power developed and fuel consumed per hour are determined.

1) A reversible heat pump is used to maintain a
temperature of 0°C in a refrigerator when it rejects the
heat to the surroundings at 25°C. If the heat removal rate from the refrigerator is 1440 kJ/min, determine the C.O.P. of the machine and work input required. (ii) If the required input to run the pump is developed by a reversible engine which receives heat at 380°C and rejects heat to atmosphere, then determine the overall C.O.P. of the system 2) An ice plant working on a reversed Carnot cycle heat pump produces 15 tonnes of ice per day. The ice is formed from water at 0°C and the formed ice is maintained at 0°C. The heat is rejected to the atmosphere at 25°C. The heat pump used to run the ice plant is coupled to a Carnot engine which absorbs heat from a source which is maintained at 220°C by burning liquid fuel of 44500 kJ/kg calorific value (fusion of ice = 334.5 kJ/kg) and rejects the heat to the atmosphere. Determine : (i) Power developed (ii) Fuel consumed / hour. The amount of heat removed by the heat pump,
