A spark ignition engine that operates on Otto cycle has a compression ratio of 10. At the beginning of the compression process, air is at 100 kPa and 25 C. 750 kJ/kg of heat is transferred to air duringthe constant-volume heat-addition process.

A steady-flow system operating on the ideal Ericsson cycle can achieve the Carnot efficiency. One of the salient features of this cycle is the isothermal expansion through a heated turbine, as shown in Fig. a. Heat is added to the turbine such that the outlet temperature is equal to the inlet temperature, i.e. T₁=T₂, and the overall pressure ratio for this process is rₚ=P₁/P₂. However, an isothermal expansion through a heated turbine is very difficult to achieve in practical engineering applications. An alternate approach is two use a multi-stage expansion process with reheating. In this approach, the gas expansion process is carried out in multiple stages with reheating in between each stage. Consider the two-stage turbine expansion with reheating shown in Fig. b. The gas enters the first stage of the turbine at state A1, is expanded isentropically to an intermediate pressure Pₐ₂, is reheated at constant pressure to state B1, and is expanded in the second stage isentropically to the…
