13.4. CONSTANT VOLUME OR OTTO CYCLE
‘This cycle is so named as it was conceived by ‘Otte’. On this eycle, petrol, gas and many
typos of oil engines work. It isthe standard of comparison for internal combustion engines,

019.5, CONSTANT PRESSURE OR DIESEL CYCLE
‘This eylo was introduced by Dr. R, Diesel in 1897, It differs from Otto eyele in that feat is
supplied at constant pressure instead of at constant volume. Fig. 13.15 (a and 6) shows the p-v
and T's diagrams ofthis cycle respectively.

Point 1 represents that the cylinder is full of air. Let p,, V; and 7 be the corresponding
pressure, volume and absolute temperature. The piston then compresses the air adiabatically (i.e,
