Water-to-water heat pumps are recently being employed to produce hot water, in-stead of gas water heaters. a water-to-water vapor compression heat pump cycle using 134-a as a working fluid operates between pressure limits of 200 kpa and 1600 kpa to produce hot water in winter. assume the isentropic efficiency of the compressor to be 85 percent determine the energy required to produce 100 gpm of hot water for 4000 hours of operation per year. what is the maximum temperature at which hot water can be produced? note: there should be at least 10°c of temperature difference between the water and the refrigerant fluid in the evaporator and condenser of the heat pump at inlet and exit of each device.

A2-m rigid tank initially contains saturated water vapor at 100 kpa. the tank is connected to a supply line through a valve. steam is flowing in the supply line at 600 kpa and 300 c. the valve is opened, and steam is allowed to enter the tank until the pressure in the tank reaches the line pressure, at which point the valve is closed. a thermometer placed in the tank indicates that the temperature at the final state is 200°c. determine (a) the mass of steam that has entered the tank (b) the amount of heat transfer.
