1. At the beginning of the compression stroke, an ideal Otto cycle has an air pressure of 15 psia, a temperature of 75 °F, and a specific volume of 13.2 cubic feet per pound. At the end of compression, the specific volumeis 1.76 cubic feet per pound, the heat supplied to the cycle is 352 Btu/lb. Calculate the following: a. the compression ratio b. the heat rejected c. net work of the cycle d. the thermal efficiency of the cycle e. the horsepower developed by an ideal engine operating on this cycle using 0.50 pound air per second.
