Question:

To approximate an actual spark-ignition engine consider an air-standard Otto cycle that has a heat addition of 800 Btu/lbm of air, a compression ratio of 7, and a pressure and temperature at the beginning of the compression process of 13 lbf/in 2, 50 F. Assuming constant specific heat, with the value from Table C.4, determine the maximum pressure and temperature of the cycle, the thermal efficiency of the cycle and the mean effective pressure.
