Abstract
The finite-time exergoeconomic performance of an endoreversible Carnot heat pump with a complex heat transfer law, including generalized convective heat transfer law and generalized radiative heat transfer law q∝ (Δ T n ) m , is investigated in this paper. The focus of this paper is to obtain the compromised optimization between economics (profit) and the energy utilization factor (coefficient of performance, COP) for the endoreversible Carnot heat pump, by searching the optimum COP at maximum profit, which is termed as the finite-time exergoeconomic performance bound. The obtained results include those obtained in much of the literature and can provide some theoretical guidance for the design of practical heat pumps.
