Textbook Problem: 9-183(Answers provided, must include assumptions, schematic and work to get answers!)
A heat pump that operates on the ideal vapor-compression cycle with R-134a is used to
heat a house. The mass flow rate of the refrigerant is 0.25 kg/s. The condenser and
evaporator pressures are 1400 and 320 kPa, respectively. Determine (a) the rate of heat
supply to the house, (b) the volume flow rate of the refrigerant at the compressor inlet,
(c) the COP, and (d) draw a T-s diagram. (Ans.(a) QH =-38.8 kW,(b) V =0.0159 m3/s,
and (c) COP =5.1)
