During each cycle, a heat engine operating between two heat reservoirs absorbs 156 J from the reservoir at 100°C and releases 136 J to the reservoir at 20°C. (a) What is the efficiency of this engine? % (b) What is the ratio of its efficiency to that of a Carnot engine working between the same reservoirs? This ratio is called the second law efficiency. εengine / εCarnot =

A heat engine operates between two reservoirs at 1000°C and 20°C. The heat engine is used to drive a Carnot heat pump that removes heat from the cold surroundings at 5°C and transfers it to a house maintained at 25°C. If the house is losing heat at a rate of 20 kW. Determine: i) the thermal efficiency of the heat engine ii) the minimum rate of heat supply to the heat engine required to keep the house at 25°C

B.1 This question concerns the use of different working substances in an engine 2018 (a) Carbon monoxide (CO) and ethene (C2H4) are gases with the same molecular mass: how do you expect their heat capacities to compare, and why? A reversible heat engine involves one mole of diatomic ideal gas cycling around four states labelled a,b,c & d where a is the state of highest pressure. The cycle comprises two isotherms (a-b, c-d) and two isochores (b-c, d-a). [Note: 'isochore'...
