An air-standard Diesel cycle has a compression ratio of 16 and a cutoff ratio of 2. At the beginning of the compression process, air is at 99 kPa and 27°C. Account for the variation of specific heats with temperature. The gas constant of air is R = 0.287 kJ/kg.K. Determine the mean effective pressure. The mean effective pressure is 0 kPa.

Question
An air-standard Diesel cycle has a compression ratio of 16 and a cutoff ratio of 2. At the beginning of the compression process, air is at 99 kPa and 27°C. Account for the variation of specific heats with temperature. The gas constant of air is \( R = 0.287 \, \text{kJ/kg} \cdot \text{K} \).

Determine the mean effective pressure.

The mean effective pressure is \( \boxed{0} \, \text{kPa} \).
