Question
.1 A heat engine receives heat transfer rate at 1 MW at a high temperature of 550 °C and rejects
energy to the ambient surroundings at 300 K. Work is produced at a rate of 450 kW.
a)
b)
c)
How much energy is rejected to the ambient surroundings?
What is the engine efficiency?
Compare this engine with a Carnot engine operating between the same temperature limits.
(Compare efficiency, net-work done)
.2 On a T-s diagram, indicate all the processes for an Engine working on a Carnot cycle between
two temperature limits TH (highest temperature) and TL (lowest temperature).
