The hot reservoir for a Carnot engine has a temperature of 933 K, while the cold reservoir has a temperature of 326 K. The heat input for this engine is 7160 J. The 326-K reservoir also serves as the hot reservoir for a second Carnot engine. This second engine uses the rejected heat of the first engine as input and extracts additional work from it. The rejected heat from the second engine goes into a reservoir that has a temperature of 144 K. Find the total work delivered by the two engines.

We have a Carnot engine operating between a hot reservoir A and a cold reservoir B. The work produced in the engine is used to power a flywheel. The hot reservoir is boiling water at p0 = 1 bar and Ta = 373K. The cold reservoir is a block of ice at p0 and Tb = 273K (latent heat = 3.3E5 J/kg). For the flywheel we know that Inertiamoment = 2kg m^2, mass = 6kg, c = 418J/kg K. Final...
