Example
An ideal Otto cycle has a compression ratio of 8. At the
beginning of the compression process, air is at 95 kPa and
27°C, and 750 kJ/kg of heat is transferred to air during the
constant-volume heat-addition process. Taking into account
the variation of specific heats with temperature, determine
• (a) the pressure and temperature at the end of the heat addition
process,
• (b) the net work output
• (c) the thermal efficiency
• (d) the mean effective pressure for the cycle.

Example 9-37
The compression ratio of an air-standard Otto cycle is 9.5. Prior
to the isentropic compression process, the air is at 100 kPa,
35°C, and 600 cm3. The temperature at the end of the isentropic
expansion process is 800 K. Using specific heat values at room
temperature, determine
(a) the highest temperature and pressure in the cycle;
(b) the amount of heat transferred in, in kJ;
(c) the thermal efficiency;
(d) the mean effective pressure.
