    Carnot heat pump

    Explanation:

    Carnot heat pump is an ideal heat pump in which all processes are reversible and that consume minimum amount of work to and produces maximum amount of heating effect compare to all real engine. And that is why COP of Carnot heat pump is more as compare to real heat pump.

    All real heat pump are not perfectly reversible heat pump So this is also called irreversible heat pump. Due to irreversibility the COP of irreversible heat pump is always less than the COP of Carnot heat pump.
