Textbook Question

Chapter 19, Problem 94GP

A diesel engine accomplishes ignition without a spark plug by an adiabatic compression of air to a temperature above the ignition temperature of the diesel fuel, which is injected into the cylinder at the peak of the compression. Suppose air is taken into the cylinder at 280 K and volume V₁ and is compressed adiabatically to 560°C (≈ 1000°F) and volume V₂. Assuming that the air behaves as an ideal gas whose ratio of C_P to C_V is 1.4, calculate the compression ratio V₁/V₂ of the engine.
