A diesel engine has a compression ratio of 18 and a cut off ratio of 2.4. At the beginning of the compression process, the air in the cylinder is at 100kPa and 27°C. Assume the gas constant, R = 287J/kgK, the specific heat at constant volume, Cy 718J/kgk, and the ratio of specific heats,= 1.4. Calculate; i The temperature after the heat addition process ii The maximum pressure in the cylinder iii The work done by the cycle per unit mass iv The thermal efficiency of the engine
