It is a device which is used to maintain the temperature of body higher than that of atmosphere while working in a cyclic process.

Let us consider a heat pump in which Q₁ amount of heat is required to be supplied to high temperature body by taking Q₂ amount of heat from atmosphere.

Therefore (COP) = desired effect

ᴴᴾ input


= Q₁ / (Q₁ - Q₂)
