Question

A heat pump picks up 1000kJ of heat from well water at 10^oc
C and discharges 3000kJ of
heat to a building to maintain it at 20^oc
C. What is the COP of the heat pump? What is the
minimum required cycle network? Please this is the right answer i need the solution. (1.5, 2000kJ)

Answer 1

The minimum required cycle network

$$W=Q_H-Q_C=3000-1000=2000\ kJ$$

$$COP=\frac{Q_H}{W}=\frac{3000}{2000}=1.5$$
