If L Q represents the magnitude of heat transfer from a low temperature reservoir to a cyclic device and H Q represents the magnitude of heat transfer from a cyclic device to a high temperature reservoir, then for the same L Q and H Q , the coefficient performance of a refrigerator ( ) R COP and the coefficient performance of a heat pump ( ) HP COP can be related as

- A. 1 R HP COP COP =−
- B. 1 HP R COP COP = +
- C. . 1 R HP COP COP =
- D. 1 HP R COP COP = −
Answer: B. 1 HP R COP COP = +
