The problem is asking for the efficiency of two different engines. The efficiency is defined as:

$\text{Efficiency} (\%) = \left( \frac{\text{Output Power}}{\text{Input Power}} \right) \times 100$

Let's break it down:

a) Power generation station:

• Input power = 450,000 MW
• Output power = 95,000 MW

Using the formula:

$\text{Efficiency} = \left( \frac{95,000}{450,000} \right) \times 100$

b) Four-stroke diesel engine:

• Input power = 80 kW
• Output power = 22 kW

Using the formula:

$\text{Efficiency} = \left( \frac{22}{80} \right) \times 100$

I'll now calculate both efficiencies.The efficiencies for the two cases are:

a) Power generation station: $21.11\%$
b) Four-stroke diesel engine: $27.50\%$

1. What factors influence the efficiency of power generation stations?
2. How does the efficiency of diesel engines vary with load?
3. What are common methods to improve engine efficiency?
4. What is the typical efficiency range for power plants using different fuel types?
5. How is energy lost in less efficient engines?
