← ScienceWhich constraint affects maximum Carnot engine mechanical work?
A)Temperature difference during thermal transfer✓
B)Turbine blade material stress tolerance
C)Exhaust back-pressure against piston travel
D)Incomplete combustion energy released
💡 Explanation
The maximum work of a Carnot engine is limited by the Temperature difference because Heat to Work Conversion efficiency increases proportionally. Therefore, a smaller temperature difference restricts performance, rather than purely mechanical tolerances under stress.
