Determine the thermal efficiency.
ii.
Calculate the power output of this heat engine.
A heat engine operates between two reservoirs at 8000 C and 200 C. One-half of the work output of the engine is used to drive a Carnot heat pump that removes heat from the cold surroundings at 20 C and transfers heat to a house maintained at 220 C. If the house is losing heat at a rate of 62,000 kJ/h, determine the minimum rate of heat supply to the heat engine required to keep the house at 220 C.

- A heat pump with a COP of 3.2 is used to heat a perfectly sealed house (no air leaks). The entire mass within the house (air, furniture, etc.) is equivalent to 1200 kg of air. When running, the heat pump consumes electric power at a rate of 5 kW. The temperature of the house was 7°C when the heat pump was turned on. If heat transfer through the envelope of the house (walls, roof, etc.) is negligible, the length of time the heat pump must run to raise the temperature of the entire contents of the house to 22°C is (a) 13.5 min (b) 43.1 min (c) 138 min (d) 18.8 min (e) 808 minarrow_forwardA heat engine has a total heat input of 1.3 kJ and a thermal efficiency of 35 percent.
