Question

An Otto cycle begins its compression at 94kPa, 1230cm^3 and 11degC. The dispalacement volume and maximum temperature within the cycle is 1090cm^3 and 920degC and respectively.

Utilizing air standard assumptions, determine the:

a. thermal efficiency (%)
b. mean effective pressure (kPa). Consider the cycle as a model of the process in each cylinder of a spark-ignition engine. 

c. Net power output (kW) if the engine has four cylinders and the cycle is repeated 1200 times per minute in each cylinder

Show the T-s and P-v diagrams when solving. 

Note that specific heats are not constant
