1. A Carnot heat engine receives heat at 677°C and rejects the waste heat to the environment at 32°C. The entire work
output of the heat engine is then used to drive a Carnot refrigerator that removes heat from the cooled space (at -
15°C) at a rate of 245 kJ/min and rejects it to the same 32°C-environment. Determine (a) the rate of heat supplied
to the heat engine (in kJ/min) and (b) the amount of work consumed by the refrigerator's compressor, in kJ/s. Also,
what is the (c) total amount of heat (in kJ) being rejected to the environment per hour, from both the heat engine
and the refrigerator?
