Question

A Carnot heat engine operates between a source at 1000 K and a sink at 300 K. If the heat engine is sup plied with heat at a rate of 800 KJ/min. determine (a) the thermal efficiency and (by the power output of this heat engine

Answer 1

Answer:

The heat engine is the special type of device which is used to convert the thermal energy to mechanical energy and this mechanical work is used where there is a requirement of that useful work. There is some loss while converting the energy due to the friction in the system.
