Consider the air-standard Otto cycle described in Problem 9.94. A particular cycle operates with a compression ratio
Question:
Consider the air-standard Otto cycle described in Problem 9.94. A particular cycle operates with a compression ratio of 7:1 and has a heat input of 2100 kJ/kg. The pressure and temperature at maximum volume before compression (state 1) are 100 kPa and 15°C, respectively. Determine the net work produced by the cycle.
Problem 9.94
1-2 : Internally reversible, adiabatic compression from the maximum volume Vmax to the minimum volume Vmin.
2-3 : Constant-volume heat addition to a peak cycle temperature T3.
3-2 : Internally reversible, adiabatic expansion from Vmin to Vmax.
4-2 : Constant-volume heat rejection to return to the initial state.
Sketch this cycle using P–V and T–S coordinates, labeling each state point (1, 2, 3, and 4).
