An ideal Otto cycle has a compression ratio of 8. At the beginning of the compression process, air is at 95 kPa and 27°C, and 800 kJ/kg of heat is transferred to air during the constant-volume heat-addition process. Take into account the variation of specific heats with temperature. The gas constant of air is R = 0.287 kJ/kg-K.

### Otto Cycle Problem Statement

An ideal Otto cycle has a compression ratio of 8. At the beginning of the compression process, air is at 95 kPa and 27°C, and 800 kJ/kg of heat is transferred to air during the constant-volume heat-addition process. Take into account the variation of specific heats with temperature. The gas constant of air is \( R = 0.287 \, \text{kJ/kg·K} \).

#### Task

Determine the thermal efficiency. (You must provide an answer before moving on to the next part.)

#### Input Field

- **The thermal efficiency is:** \[ \boxed{0} \] \%

The box above is for inputting the calculated thermal efficiency percentage.
