QUESTION 3 (The Carnot engine) A reversible heat engine receives heat from a reservoir which is at a temperature of and then rejects it to another at . The heat supplied is . Determine the following: 3.1. The thermal efficiency of the engine. 3.2. The work produced by the engine. 3.3. The heat rejected. [9] QUESTION 4 (Thermodynamic relationships) A tank of a water heater has and is initially sealed and full of water at and . The water heater is designed to maintain the water at this temperature, but due to a fault in the temperature sensor, the heating element comes on and remains on. The temperature of the water increases, but there is no space into 2 which the water can expand. The tank has a pressure relief value that is designed to open at . At what water temperature will this occur? Assume the isothermal compressibility and coefficient of thermal expansion of water are constant at and [5]
