Consider that you are advising an investor looking for new products to support. The investor asks you to review a plan she has received from an inventor who claims that his invention will provide a new type of engine for an automobile. The investor is skeptical of the inventor’s claims. The inventor also claims that the engine will produce 150 kW of power while receiving heat at a rate of 210 kW. The engine is to receive the heat at a temperature of 600°C, and it rejects the heat at a temperature of 80°C. Should you advise the investor to strongly consider this proposal or to steer clear of it? Why?
