Question:

Consider a Carnot-cycle heat pump with R-410a as the working fluid. Heat is rejected from the R-410a at 35◦C, during which process the R-410a changes from saturated vapor to saturated liquid. The heat is transferred to the R-410a at 0◦C.

a. Show the cycle on a T–s diagram.

b. Find the quality of the R-410a at the beginning and end of the isothermal heat addition process at 0◦C.

c. Determine the COP for the cycle.
