← ScienceWhich outcome reduces pressure work from a Carnot engine?
A)Operating temperature closer cold reservoir
B)Reducing internal stage irreversibilities further✓
C)Isothermal heat addition increases rapidly
D)Increase adiabatic compression temperature bounds
💡 Explanation
Reducing internal stage irreversibilities increases the engine's efficiency due to the Carnot cycle achieving reversible processes. The efficiency increases because less energy is lost within the cycle as unusable heat, therefore higher net-work because, rather than heat losses lowering pressure.
