A geothermal heat pump absorbs 15 KJ/s of heat from the Earth 15 m below a house. This heat pump uses a 7.45 kJ/s compressor.

a) Calculate the COP of the heat pump.
b) In the summer, the cycle is reversed to cool the house. Calculate the COP of the cycle when it is operated as an air-conditioner assuming the working fluid rejects 15 Btu/s to the Earth.

Refrigerant 134a enters an insulated compressor operating at steady state as saturated vapor at -26°c with a volumetric flow rate of 0.18 m3/s. refrigerant exits at 9 bar, 70°c. changes in kinetic and potential energy from inlet to exit can be ignored. determine the volumetric flow rate at the exit, in m3/s, and the compressor power, in kw.
