A newly purchased sedan car operates on an ideal thermodynamic cycle. The engine has a compression ratio of 10. The ambient air pressure is 1 bar while temperature is 21 ºC. The maximum temperature in the engine is 1600 K. Draw the ideal power cycle and label it. Utilizing the air-standard assumptions, determine (a) the gas temperature at the exits of the compression and the expansion processes, (b) the specific works of compression, expansion and net, (c) heat supplied to the engine and (d) the thermal efficiency.

Question

A newly purchased sedan car operates on an ideal thermodynamic cycle. The engine has a
compression ratio of 10. The ambient air pressure is 1 bar while temperature is 21 ºC. The
maximum temperature in the engine is 1600 K. Draw the ideal power cycle and label it.
Utilizing the air-standard assumptions, determine (a) the gas temperature at the exits of the
compression and the expansion processes, (b) the specific works of compression, expansion
and net, (c) heat supplied to the engine and (d) the thermal efficiency.
