CARNOT CYCLE MULTIPLE CHOICE QUESTIONS (MCQ) WITH ANSWERS

CARNOT CYCLE MULTIPLE

CHOICE QUESTIONS

(MCQ) WITH ANSWERS 

MCQ help in better understanding.

Carnot Cycle is a most efficient power

producing cycle. It has two isentropic and

two isothermal processes. In the Carnot

Cycle, equations are there for the change

of entropy in a process. Every process in

nature is irreversible. Entropy increases

due to irreversibility. Increase of entropy is

undesirable as it reduces availability.
