Problem:

For an air-standard Otto cycle, the pressure and temperature at the beginning of
isentropic compression are 120 kPaa and 35 deg C respectively. The peak cycle
pressure and temperature are 4.8 MPaa and 2500 deg C.
Determine:
a) the net cycle work in kJ/kg;
b) cycle efficiency;
c) mep.
(Ans: 714.71 kJ/kg; 44.93%; 1251.7 kPaa)
