(a) An irreversible heat engine A and a reversible heat engine B operate between the same two
thermal energy reservoirs (Figure Q3a). Each heat engine receives the same amount of heat,
Qu from the high-temperature reservoir. Based on the Carnot Principles show that the heat
engine A removes more energy, Qi to the low-temperature reservoir than heat engine B.

The first cycle receives energy QH by heat transfer from a hot reservoir at 1000°R and energy Q is reinjected by heat transfer to a reservoir at an intermediate temperature, T. The second cycle receives energy Q by heat transfer from the reservoir at temperature T and reinjects the QC energy by heat transfer to the reservoir at a temperature of 400°R. All energy transferred is positive in the direction of the arrow. Determine: a) the intermediate temperature T, in °R, and the thermal efficiency for each of the two cycles; b) the thermal efficiency of a simple reversible cycle operating between the hot and cold reservoirs at 1000°R and 400°C, respectively. Then determine the net work done by the simple cycle, expressed in terms of the net work done by each of the two cycles, Wcycle.arrow_forward
