Refrigerator moves energy from cold to hot reservoir : A refrigerator moves energy from a cold reservoir (the inside of the refrigerator) to a hot reservoir (the kitchen), but some extra energy is required in the form of work done by some outside agent (typically a compressor motor).

Energy is exhausted to the cold reservoir : Suppose a heat engine has an efficiency of 0.201 and produces 1.09×104 J of work. How much energy is pulled in from the hot reservoir? How much energy is rejected by the engine? (This energy is "exhausted" to the cold reservoir.))
