Question
An air-standard Diesel cycle operates with a compression ratio, r = 10:1. If the initial
conditions at bdc are 1 bar and 27 °C, and the energy addition is 2000 kJ/kg of air, calculate
the salient points around the cycle, and the thermal efficiency. Show that the efficiency
calculated from the cycle calculation is equal to that from Eqn (3.20). Assume the
compression and expansion are isentropic and K = 1.4. How does this compare with the
efficiency of a Carnot cycle between the two temperature limits, and what is the value of ẞ?
