    The document discusses heat pumps and their thermodynamic principles. It explains that heat pumps can be used to heat a house in winter and cool it in summer by transferring heat from one reservoir to another. The coefficient of performance (COP) is calculated using the first law of thermodynamics. For an ideal heat pump following the Carnot cycle, the COP depends on the temperatures of the hot and cold reservoirs. Real heat pumps typically have a COP ranging from 2 to 3.
