What is the rate of heat output of a Carnot engine?
Power Output / [(1/Thermal Efficiency) - 1], where Thermal Efficiency = 1 - Tc/Th
What is the efficiency of an engine that gives off thermal energy?
anal probes
Efficiency of nuclear power plant?
PWR's and BWR's have thermal efficiencies around 33%, that is the generated power as opposed to the reactor thermal power.
Which term defines something that transfers thermal energy efficiently?
Heat transfers thermal energy efficiently from one source to another. The movement of particles when heated results in this efficiency.
Does a high-efficiency machine degrade a relatively high or low percentage of energy to thermal energy?
It degrades a low percentage.
Is it true that thermal efficiency of a diesel engine equals indicated thermal efficiency - brake thermal efficiency?
no
What is thermal efficiency of petrol engine?
The maximum Thermal Efficiency of Petrol Engine or Gasoline Engine or Otto Cycle Engine is about 25-30%.
Which power plant has maximum efficiency?
thermal
What is efficiency of an engine that gives off 70 percent thermal energy?
It is not a good efficiency engine.
Compare the two stroke and four stroke engine in powe output and thermal efficiency?
compare the two stroke and four stroke engine in power output and thermal efficiency?
What is the definition of thermal efficiency?
the efficiency of a heat engine measured by the ratio of the work done by it to the heat supplied to it.
What is the efficiency of an engine that gives off 70 percent thermal energy?
It is not a good efficiency engine.
What is the rate of heat output of a Carnot engine?
Power Output / [(1/Thermal Efficiency) - 1], where Thermal Efficiency = 1 - Tc/Th
What is formula for thermal efficiency?
Thermal Eff = (mechanical heat produced/electrical heat produced) x 100%
If efficiency of converting chemical to thermal energy was 90 percent what would the overall efficiency be?
In saying what the overall efficiency would be, I suppose you mean for other processes, creating the chemical energy for example, and using the thermal energy. This is impossible to answer, not knowing what these processes are.
What is the efficiency of an engine that gives off thermal energy?
anal probes
What does it mean to have high thermal energy?
It mean, it had high temperature difference to the surrounding. Quality of thermal energy is upon the temperature due to thermodynamics efficiency. At same thermal energy of 100 kJ refer to 0 oC ambient, a hot bath of 100 oC may have maximum theoretical thermal efficiency of 27% or 27 kJ usable but a hot steam of 200 oC may have maximum theoretical thermal efficiency of 42% or 42 kJ usable.
