reverse carnot engine is also called a REFRIGERATION SYSTEM.
Carnot heat engine was develop in 1824 by Nicolas Leonard.

carnot engine
The Carnot cycle is a mathematical description of an engine that derives its power from heat.
because it is the best theoretical engine. our aim is always to make our practical engine as close as that of carnot. if u don't know about the carnot cycle then how will u do that.
carnot's heat heat engine is also known as ideal heat engine.because in carnot's the precess is reversible .Total heat converted into work . The efficiency is maximum for carnot's heat engine.
The efficiency of the carnot engine - or any engine for that matter - is given by the quocient between the desired effect and what you payed for it, that is, the quocient between the net work output and the heat added to the system.
rifrigerator is or can be treated as the reverse of Carnot's engine
The work output of a Carnot engine would be the maximum possible, i.e. it would yield the maximum possible efficiency for conversion of input energy into useful work.
You must insert the temperatures, in Kelvin, into the formula. Freezing point of water: 273 K; boiling point of water: 373 K. Thus, you get a Carnot efficiency of (373 - 273) / 373, or about 27%.
