Expert Solution
Step 1

Given:

  • The outside temperature is To=95oF= (95oF+460.67)=554.67 R.
  • The inside temperature is Ti=80oF=(80oF+460.67)=539.67 R.

(a)

The COP of TempStar air conditioners for the model N4A318AKA can be calculated using the below relation:

COP=QoWin COP=QoVI

Here, is min. circuit ampacity for model N4A318AKA and V is the voltage rating of the single-phase that is V=230 V (supplied to the house). The voltage range supplied to the house is of range 220 V-240 V. The average rms value is 230 V.

Substitute all the known values in the above expression.

COP=18000 btuh230×11.7COP=18000 btuh2691 WCOP=18000 btuh2691 W3.42 btuh1 W1.96

Thus, the COP of temp star air conditioners is 1.96.
