Question:

Cold water at 10°C enters a water heater at the rate of 0.02 m3/min and leaves the water heater at 50°C. The water heater receives heat from a heat pump that receives heat from a heat source at 0°C.
(a) Assuming the water to be an incompressible liquid that does not change phase during heat addition, determine the rate of heat supplied to the water, in kJ/s.
(b) Assuming the water heater acts as a heat sink having an average temperature of 30°C, determine the minimum power supplied to the heat pump, in kW.
