A reversible heat engine operates between three isothermal heat reservoirs. The engine receives 4000 kW heat from reservoir A at 1000 K produces work output of 1600 kW. Heat source reservoir B and Heat sink reservoir C are at 300 K and 400 K respectively. Calculate the heat transfer with the reservoir B and C using Clausius inequality theorem. Also estimate the thermal efficiency of the heat engine.
