The formula to calculate the Performance of Heat Pump (Ppump) is:
\[ P_{\text{pump}} = \frac{Q}{W_p} \]
Heat pump is a mechanical system that allows for the transmission of heat from one location at a lower temperature to another location (the "sink" or "heat sink") at a higher temperature. Heat is the form of energy that is transferred between systems or objects with different temperatures (flowing from the high-temperature system to the low-temperature system). Work of Heat Pump is work done by the heat pump in an interval of temperature change.
Let's assume the following values:
Using the formula:
\[ P_{\text{pump}} = \frac{570}{5000} \approx 0.114 \]
The Performance of Heat Pump is approximately 0.114.
