T 2 = T 1 ( v 1 v 2 ) k − 1 (I) Here, the temperature at state 1 is T 1 , the temperature at state 2 is T 2 , specific volume at state 1 is v 1 , specific volume at state 2 is v 2 , and the specific heat ratio is k . Write the pressure, temperature, and specific volume relation for isentropic compression process 1-2 as P 2 v 2 T 2 = P 1 v 1 T 1 P 2 = v 1 v 2 P 1 T 1 T 2 (II) Here, pressure at state 1 is P 1 , and pressure at state 2 is P 2 . For constant volume heat addition process 2-3, express the heat addition ( q 23 , in ) as q 23 , i n = c v ( T 3 − T 2 ) (III) Here, specific heat at constant volume is c v , temperature at state 3 is T 3 . Write the relation between the temperature, pressure, and specific volume relation for the constant volume heat addition process 2-3. P 3 v 3 T 3 = P 2 v 2 T 2 P 3 = P 2 v 2 T 2 T 3 (IV) For process 2-3, v 2 and v 3 are equal. Here, pressure at state 3 is P 3 , and specific volume at state 3 is v 3 . From the Table A-2 “Ideal2gas specific heats of various common gases” obtain the below properties for air. c v = 0.718 kJ / kg ⋅ K c p = 1.005 kJ / kg ⋅ K R = 0.287 kJ / kg ⋅ K k = 1.4 Conclusion. Substitute 300 K for T 1 , 8 for ( v 1 v 2 ) , and 1 b) To determine The net work output for the given Otto cycle c) To determine The thermal efficiency of the given Otto cycle. d) To determine The mean effective pressure of the given Otto cycle.

The engine designed by Lenoir was essentially an atmospheric engine based on the early steam engines. In this, a combustible mixture was contained in a cylinder: it was ignited and the pressure increased isochorically to the maximum level. After this the gas expanded isentropically through an expansion ratio, re, during which it produced work output. The air-standard cycle returned the gas to state 1 through an isochoric expansion to p₁ and an isobaric compression to V1. Assume p₁ = 1 bar, T₁ = 15 °C, p2 = 10 bar and the expansion ratio, re = 5. Calculate the specific work output and thermal efficiency of this cycle. How does this compare with the efficiency of an equivalent Carnot cycle? [650.30 kJ/kg; 34.97%; 90.0%]

An Ericsson cycle operates on 0.75 lb of oxygen from 60 psia and 1200°F at the beginning of isothermal process to the lower temperature limit of 200°F. If the isothermal expansion ratio is 3, determine QA, QR, Wnet, e, and mean effective pressure.Please provide clear, detailed solution. Thanks
