Consider a very long, slender rod. One end of the rod is attached to a base surface maintained at Tb, while the surface of the r
od is exposed to an air temperature of 400°C. Thermocouples imbedded in the rod at locations 25 mm and 120 mm from the base surface register temperatures of 335°C and 375°C, respectively.
(a) Calculate the rod base temperature (°C).
(b) Determine the rod length (mm) for the case where the ratio of the heat transfer from a finite length fin to the heat transfer from a very long fin under the same conditions is 99 percent.

Answer:
engine B is more efficient.
Explanation:
We know that Carnot cycle is an ideal cycle for all working heat engine.In Carnot cycle there are four processes in which two are constant temperature processes and others two are isentropic process.
We also kn ow that the efficiency of Carnot cycle given as follows
Here temperature should be in Kelvin.
For engine A
For engine B
So from above we can say that engine B is more efficient.
