Which outcome occurs when a heat engine's condenser pressure increases?

💡 Explanation

A higher condenser pressure reduces the turbine's effective temperature differential, limiting power output because it decreases the Carnot efficiency; therefore, less energy is converted to work, rather than increasing thermal efficiency.
