In a special case efficiency of both the cycle is equal otherwise carnot cycle is more efficient. Therefore option A should be correct.

Carnot cycle says 100% efficiency. But stirling cycle have some heat losses are there. So how to say equal efficiency?

AJAYRAJ SOLANKI said:   1 decade ago
Equal efficiency to carnot cycle and Stirling cycle.

Gautam said:   1 decade ago
Regenerative striking cycle has the same efficiency as the Carnot cycle.

Pawan tiwari said:   1 decade ago
Efficiency of sterling cycle is equal to Carnot cycle under the assumption that effectiveness of heat ex changer use in sterling engine must be 1.

ROHIT KUMAR said:   1 decade ago
The efficiency of Stirling cycle is equal to Carnot cycle. This is due to the fact that the cycle is reversible and all reversible cycles have the same efficiency.

Ex: Carnot, Stirling, Ericsson.

Efficiency of the striking cycle is less than Carnot but efficiency of regenerative striking cycle is equal to Carnot cycle.

David said:   1 decade ago
Carnot cycle is also know as striking cycle. So the answer is equal efficiency.

Kaushal kishore said:   1 decade ago
In of regenerative arrangement, the efficiency of Stirling is equal to Carnot otherwise it less than Carnot.

Equal but at same temperature range.
