An engineer receives a schematic fora reversible heat engine with three reservoirs at the temperatures shown to the right. The heat engine produces 1800 kW work as it pulls 3200 kW of heat from the 600K reservoir. The engineer wonders if the schematic is drawn correctly (in other words, are the arrows going the correct directions?) To answer this

An engineer receives a schematic fora reversible heat engine with three reservoirs at the temperatures shown to the right. The heat engine produces 1800 kW work as it pulls 3200 kW of heat from the 600K reservoir. The engineer wonders if the schematic is drawn correctly (in other words, are the arrows going the correct directions?) To answer this question,

(a) calculate the heat interactions of the HE with the other two reservoirs.

(b)If necessary, draw an updated diagram with the correct directionalities indicating the rates of heat transfer.
