    Ideal Otto Cycle

    Uploaded by

    Ralph Evidente
    An ideal Otto cycle with an air working fluid and a compression ratio of 10 is analyzed. The air is initially at 100 kPa and 25°C and undergoes: 1) Isentropic compression to 748.9 K 2) Constant volume heating of 1000 kJ/kg, raising the temperature to 2141.9 K 3) Isentropic expansion back to 852.7 K 4) Constant volume cooling, closing the cycle. The thermal efficiency is 60%, the mean effective pressure is 778.7 kPa, the highest temperature is 2141.9 K, and the temperature at the start of heat rejection is 852.7 K.

    An ideal Otto cycle has a compression ratio of 10.

    Air at 100 kPa and 25 oC


    undergoes isentropic compression and 1000 kJ/kg of heat was transferred to air at
    constant volume. Assume air behaves like an ideal gas and its properties remain
    constant with CP = 1.005 kJ/kg-K and k = 1.4, calculate the (a) thermal efficiency,
    , (b) mean effective pressure (kPa) , (c) highest temperature in the cycle and (d)
    temperature at the beginning of heat rejection

    Step 1 Step 2 (isentropic compression)


    Step 2 Step 3 (addition of 1000 kJ/kg of heat at constant volume)
    Step 3 Step 4 (isentropic expansion)
