An ideal Otto engine has a compression ratio of 10 and uses air
as the working fluid. The state of air at the beginning of the
compression process is 100 kPa and 27 0C. The maximum
temperature in the cycle is 2100K. (R=0.287 for air) (using
variable specific heat)
- Draw the P-v diagram of the Otto cycle
- Determine the specific internal energies at the beginning and
the end of the compression,
- Determine the specific internal energies before and after the
expansion
- Determine the specific heat input, heat rejection and net-work
output.
- Determine the thermal efficiency.
- If the amount of air in one cylinder at the beginning of
compression is 500 cm3, how much power can the engine
deliver for an 8 cylinder engine running at 2000rpm?
