A diesel engine takes in air at 100kPa and 20°C and the maximum cycle temperature is 1100°C with a compression ratio of 12:1. Calculate the air standard thermal efficiency based on the diesel cycle and the mean effective pressure. Assume the compression and expansion to be adiabatic and the mass of air in the cylinder after induction to be 0.6kg. Use the standard constants for air.
