The compression ratio of an air-standard Otto cycle is 8. Prior to the isentropic compression process, the air is at 100 kPa, 300 K, and 500 cm³. The temperature at the end of a polytrophic expansion process with the polytrophic exponent n=1.2 is 1200 K. Using specific heat values at room temperature, determine, the thermal efficiency and the mean effective pressure?

The compression ratio of an air-standard Otto cycle is 8. Prior to the isentropic
compression process, the air is at 100 kPa, 300 K, and 500 cm³. The temperature at the
end of a polytrophic expansion process with the polytrophic exponent n=1.2 is 1200
K. Using specific heat values at room temperature, determine, the thermal efficiency
and the mean effective pressure?
