A heat engine operates between 2 reservoirs at TH and 18oC. The heat engine receives 17,000 kJ/h from the high temperature reser
voir, and delivers half of its power output to drive a Carnot heat pump. The Carnot heat pump removes heat from the cold surroundings at 0oC and transfers it to a house which is maintained at 24oC. If the house is losing heat at a rate of 80,000 kJ/h, determine the temperature TH of the heat engine reservoir.

Answer:
# kelvin_to_celsius function is defined
# it has value_kelvin as argument
def kelvin_to_celsius(value_kelvin):
# value_celsius is initialized to 0.0
value_celsius = 0.0
# value_celsius is calculated by
# subtracting 273.15 from value_kelvin
value_celsius = value_kelvin - 273.15
# value_celsius is returned
return value_celsius
# celsius_to_kelvin function is defined
# it has value_celsius as argument
def celsius_to_kelvin(value_celsius):
# value_kelvin is initialized to 0.0
value_kelvin = 0.0
# value_kelvin is calculated by
# adding 273.15 to value_celsius
value_kelvin = value_celsius + 273.15
# value_kelvin is returned
return value_kelvin
value_c = 0.0
value_k = 0.0
value_c = 10.0
# value_c = 10.0 is used to test the function celsius_to_kelvin
# the result is displayed
print(value_c, 'C is', celsius_to_kelvin(value_c), 'K')
value_k = 283.15
# value_k = 283.15 is used to test the function kelvin_to_celsius
# the result is displayed
print(value_k, 'is', kelvin_to_celsius(value_k), 'C')
