One of the Most Efficient Engines Built So Far Has

question 31

Short Answer

One of the most efficient engines built so far has the following characteristics: The combustion chamber temperature is 1900°C, the exhaust temperature = 430°C, 7.0 × 10⁹ cal of fuel produces 1.4 × 10¹⁰ J of work in one hour. (1 cal = 4.186 J)
(a) What is the actual efficiency of this engine?
(b) What is the power output of this engine?
(c) What would be the maximum possible efficiency for an engine using the same temperature extremes?
