    Understanding Otto Cycle: Calculating Cycles, Heat Input, and Efficiency

    Otto Cycle?? Please help ASAP! I have a question that my entire class is confused over. I need help on it for a test, but I have no idea where to go with it. It doesn't seem to fit any of the equations or situations I have been using. The question is: A four-stroke engine runs on the otto...

    Compare 4 Stroke & Otto Cycle in Thermo - 300 Level

    This is for a 300 level thermodynamics class. I am supposed to write a short paper comparing the 4 stroke engine to the otto cycle. I thought these were the same thing though? For my paper, i wrote what the 4 stroke are: intake, compression, power, exhaust...and described each one. Then...

    Otto Cycle - Thermodynamics - Efficiency

    Please help with the following question, completely lost: The behavior of a four stroke gasoline engine can be approximated by the so-called Otto cycle. The process is as follows (6 steps): 1) Isobaric Intake (from V=0) at atmospheric pressure up to volume V1 (maximal volume)...

    Solving the Otto Cycle Ideal MEP Query

    Hi everyone. Sorry... I hope I don't bore you all - I fear this thread will be nowhere near as interesting as the most recent one on this forum on why aircraft fly! Anyway, I have a question relating to the Otto cycle - I'm revising my thermodynamics for an exam and on 1 of the past papers it...
