Brief description about Heat Engine, Refrigerator and Heat pump :
HEAT ENGINE
Based on Kelvin- Planck’s Statement.
It is a device that converts heat to work.
In case of heat engine, efficiency is defined as ratio of work done to heat energy supplied.
Here important criteria is net work done.
Work done by the engine =W = (Q1 – Q2)
Efficiency = Work done / Heat supplied
Efficiency = W / Q1 = (Q1 – Q2) / Q1
= (T1-T2 ) / T1
= 1 – ( T2 / T1)
REFRIGERATOR
Based on Clausius Statement.
In case of a refrigerator ,COP is defined which is the ratio of heat absorbed (refrigeration effect) to work done on the system ,Here the important criteria is heat absorbed as refrigeration effect.
Work Done on system = (Q1 – Q2)
COPR = Desired Effect / Work done
= Q2 / ( Q1 – Q2)
= T2 / ( T1-T2)
COP is reverse of Efficiency
HEAT PUMP
Based on Clausius Statement.
In case of a heat pump ,COP is defined which is the ratio of heat rejected (refrigeration effect) to work done on the system. Here the important criteria is heat rejected as refrigeration effect.
Work Done on system = (Q1 – Q2)
COPHP = Desired Effect / Work done
= Q1 / ( Q1 – Q2)
= T1 / ( T1-T2)
COP HP = COPR + 1
