Determine the maximum theoretical rate of heating provided


A heat pump is under consideration for heating a research station located on an Antarctica ice shelf. The interior of the station is to be kept at 158C. Determine the maximum theoretical rate of heating provided by a heat pump, in kW per kW of power input, in each of two cases: The role of the cold  reservoir  is  played  by  (a)  the  atmosphere  at  2208C, (b) ocean water at 58C.
