A cold air-standard Otto cycle has a compression ratio of 12 and the temperature and pressure at the beginning of the compression process are 520°R and 14.2 lbf/in.?, respectively. The heat addition per unit mass of air is 400 Btu/lb. Assume constant specific heats evaluted at 520°R. Determine: (a) the maximum temperature, in °R. (b) the maximum pressure, in Ibf/in.? (c) the percent thermal efficiency.
