A new parabolic dish solar concentrator is being developed to supply electricity to a small remote community. The system operates with a Stirling engine connected to two heat reservoirs HR₁ and HR₂ as shown in Fig. Concentrated solar radiation Q˙ₛᵤₙ=200kW maintains HR₁ at constant temperature Tₕᵣ,₁=700℃, and a high performance heat sink device maintains HR₂ at temperature Tₕᵣ,₂=25℃. After some time of operation, an engineer working on the project realizes that the engine power output is performing below design specifications and only provides a power output of 120kW. After inspecting the system, they discover a contact resistance that causes the thermal communication between the two heat reservoirs and the engine to be imperfect in the sense that a finite temperature difference is required to establish heat transfer between each of the heat reservoirs and the engine.
Assuming the engine itself is internally reversible, estimate the rate of entropy generation in the engine’s…

Consider a heat engine operating between temperatures Th and Tj. During each cycle with time At, work W is extracted, so Pout = W/At. (a) Assuming the processes are all reversible, what is the efficiency of this heat engine, n = Wout/Qn? (b) Now assume that the low temperature of the heat engine is lowered by a reversible refrigerator, such that the heat engine operates between Th and T. The refrigerator takes input power Pin = Win/At and operates between T and T, where Ti < T. Draw an energy- entropy flow diagram. (c) Calculate the net efficiency (Wout - Win)/Qh.

It is, in essence, a refrigerator in which mechanical work is done and heat removed from the (cooler) inside and rejected to the (warmer) outside. A home air conditioner operating on a reversible Carnot cycle between the inside, absolute temperature T2, and the outside, absolute tempera- ture T1 > T2, consumes P joules/sec from the power lines when operating continuously. (a) In one second, the air conditioner absorbs Q2 joules from the house and rejects Q1 joules outdoors. Develop a formula for the efficiency ratio Q2/P in terms of T1 and T2. (b) Heat leakage into the house follows Newton's law Q = A(T, – T2). Develop a formula for T, in terms of T1, P, and A for continuous operation of the air conditioner under constant outside temperature T and uniform (in space) inside temperature T2.
