Challenge Problems
Push your limits with advanced challenges
A reversed Carnot cycle operates between temperature limits T1 = 250K and T2 = 310K. Using the COP formula, calculate the theoretical efficiency.
💡 Hint: Make sure to plug the temperatures in correctly.
Evaluate the impact of increasing the TH on the efficiency of the Bell-Coleman cycle while keeping TL constant. What would be the expectations based on COP changes?
💡 Hint: Think about how temperature affects performance.
