A heat pump is a machine which moves heat from a low temperature reservoir to a higher temperature reservoir under supply of work.
Common examples are:
Environmental :: Construction and Maintenance
Heat Transfer and Thermodynamics :: Chemical Engineering
Geothermal :: Energy
HVAC :: Mechanical Engineering
Heating :: Climate Control
