A reversible heat engine operated with two environments. In the first, it draws 12000 kW from a source at 400°C and in the second, it draws 25000 kW from a source at 100°C. In both the operations, the engine rejects heat to a thermal sink at 20°C. Determine the operation in which the engine delivers more power.
