An inventor claims that he has designed an engine

Reference no: EM13536923

An inventor claims that he has designed an engine which will produce a power output of 170kW while burning a unique fuel which releases 21,000kJ of heat in a minute. He states the upper and lower temperatures of the engine are 670K and 330K, respectively. Do you believe his claim?
