Discuss a typical refrigeration cycle. Next, describe how the cycle would be altered to operate as a high temperature heat pump to produce low pressure steam. Waste heat from hot exhaust is available at 75°C and a suitable working fluid is available for heat transfer from the hot exhaust to the steam. Explain the trade-offs in the system, the most expensive component of the system, and how compression ratio impacts heat exchanger design. You must include a technical drawing of the physical system, as well as the vapor compression cycle on a pressure-enthalpy diagram. Drawings and figures cannot be prepared by hand, but must be prepared in
