Given,
T1 = 900K, T2 = 600K, T3 = 300K
W(engine) = 90kJ/s
Q(rejects) = 56kJ/s
As we know,
Solving equation (i) and (ii), we get
Q1 = 102kJ/s
and, Q2 = 44kJ/s
The thermal efficiency of the engine is
Efficiency of engine = Total Work Done / Total heat absorbed = 90 / 146
Efficiency of engine = 0.6164
∴ The efficiency of the engine is 61.64%
