The expansion phase of a simplified diesel cycle is simulated by an air-filled piston-cylinder system, as shown in the figure. A servo-actuator attached to the piston controls the pressure. The air first undergoes a constant pressure expansion followed by a polytropic expansion (with n=1.4). The ratio of final specific volume to initial specific volume, re, is rex = vs/V1. Initially (state 1) the temperature is T1 = 682 °C and the specific volume is v: = 0.04135 m³/kg. Heat is transferred to the air during the constant pressure process, 192, and the air temperature increases to T; = 2475 °C (state 2). During the polytropic expansion process the volume is increased to meet the design expansion ratio of rai = 20.
