carnot efficiency

Question

Carnot efficiency depends only on:

RankGuru · Accepted Answer

The Carnot cycle is an idealized thermodynamic cycle that provides the maximum possible efficiency for a heat engine. 
- The efficiency ($\eta$) of a Carnot engine is given by:
$\eta = 1 - \frac{T_{cold}}{T_{hot}}$
where $T$ must be in Kelvin. 
- Significantly, this efficiency is **independent of the working substance** (it doesn't matter if it's air, steam, or an ideal gas) and depends only on the temperatures of the source and the sink.
