The efficiency of a Stirling cycle depends on the temperatures of the hot and cold isothermal parts of the cycle.If you increase
1 answer:
Answer:
A. increase
Explanation:
Stirling cycle having four processes
1.Two processes are constant temperature processes
2.Two processes are constant volume processes
The efficiency of Stirling cycle is same as the efficiency of Carnot cycle.
The efficiency of Stirling cycle given as
=Lower temperature
=Upper temperature
If we increase then upper temperature while the lower temperature is constant then the efficiency of Stirling cycle will increase because the ratio of lower and upper temperature will decreases.
Therefore answer is
A. increase

Answer:
work output is always less than work input - the ratio is less than 1.
Explanation:
This principle comes from the fact that a machine or system cannot produce more work than is supplied to it, because this would violate the energy conservation law (work is a type of mechanical energy).
In theoretical machines called "ideal machines" the input work is the same as the output work, but these machines are only theoretical because in real applications there is always some type of energy loss, either in heat produced by a machine or processes for its operation, for this reason the output work is always less than the input work.
Regarding the ratio work output to work input:
because work input WI is always greater than work output WO.
