A Carnot heat engine operates between two thermal reservoirs ( T1 > T2 ) to generate as much power as required as to drive a machine ( input power requirement of 30 kW ) plus to drive an ideal heat pump working between 2 temperature limits ( T3 and T4 ) ( T3 > T4 ) . The pump takes 17 kW of heat from the low temperature reservoir where T1 = 1200K, T2= T3 =335 K, T4 = 278 K. Determine :
1. shaft work output of heat engine.
2. heat intake of heat engine.
2. heat delivered by the heat pump.

please explain in an easy to understand way as my end sem is tomorrow morning. ??
