Question
You have a workshop in the back yard of your house where you do carpentry. You like to be at constant temperature of 25oC while the room loses 10 kW to the colder outside at a temperature of 10oC. You use a heat pump to keep your workshop at your ideal temperature. The heat pump uses 2 kW of power input. Calculate the rate of entropy generation of the heat pump.

Assuming a comfortable indoor temperature is 70 °F and on a cold winter day the outdoor temperature is 10 °F. Exercise #1: Calculate total heat loss from a house in Philadelphia on a cold winter day. Assume 40% of the wall area is windows with U-value of 0.81 BTU/hr-ft²-°F. The remaining 60% of the walls has a U-value of 0.2 BTU/hr-ft²-°F. The roof has a U value of 0.05 BTU/hr-ft?-°F and the floor U-value is 0.41 BTU/hr-ft²-°F. For simplicity assume that the ground temperature is the same as the air temperature. [However, in your project design calculations you should refine this assumption.] Assume 0.5 air changes per hour (ACH) due to natural ventilation, such as leakage through windows, etc. Neglect any radiative heat loss/grain from the house.
