A heat engine operates between two reservoirs at 800°C and 20°C. One-half of the work output of the heat engine is used to drive a Carnot heat pump that removes heat from the cold surroundings at 2"C and transfers it to a house maintained at 22°C. If the house is losing heat at a rate of 62900 kJ/h, determine the minimum rate of heat supply to the heat engine required to keep the house at 22°C. The minimum rate of heat supply to the heat engine is kJ/h.
