Problem 1 - Heat Engine ( A heat engine that propels a ship produces 400,000 lbf-ft/lbm while rejecting 300 BTU/lbm of heat to a low temperature energy sink. Using what you know about heat engines, estimate its thermal efficiency. In your solution include a schematic of the heat engine with the transports of energy across its boundary and your expression for thermal efficiency in literal form before initiating your computation.
