Question

Heat is transferred to a heat engine from a furnace at a rate of 80 MW. If the rate of waste heat rejection to a nearby river is 50 MW, determine the net power output for this heat engine​

Answer 1

Answer:

A heat engine is a power-producing machine in which heat is supplied from a source at high temperatures, and the engine rejects some of the heat to a sink at a low temperature like atmosphere. A Carnot engine is a reversible heat engine having maximum possible efficiency operating between the two temperatures. The efficiency of the heat engine is always less than the Carnot engine.
