An engine is designed to obtain energy from the temperature gradient of the ocean. What is the thermodynamic efficiency of such

rewona [7]

Answer:

0.035 (3.5 %)

Explanation:

The thermodynamic efficiency is given by:

$\eta = 1 - \frac{T_C}{T_H}$

where

$T_C$ is the cold temperature

$T_H$ is the hot temperature

In this problem we have

$T_C = 5 ^{\circ}C+ 273 = 278 KT_H = 15^{\circ}C+273 = 288 K$

So the efficiency is

$\eta = 1 - \frac{278 K}{288 K}=0.035$
