Question:
In a remote location, you run a heat engine to provide the power to run a refrigerator. The input to the heat engine is 1450 R and the low T is 700 R; it has an actual efficiency equal to half that of the corresponding Carnot unit. The refrigerator has TL = 15 F and TH = 95 F with a COP that is one-third that of the corresponding Carnot unit. Assume a cooling capacity of 7000 Btu/h is needed and find the rate of heat input to the heat engine.
