Question:

An ideal Diesel cycle has a maximum cycle temperature of 2300oF and a cutoff ratio of 1.4. The state of the air at the beginning of the compression is P1 = 14.4 psia and T1 = 50oF. This cycle is executed in a four-stroke, eight cylinder engine with a cylinder bore of 4 in and a piston stroke of 4 in. The minimum volume enclosed in the cylinder is 4.5 percent of the maximum cylinder volume. Determine the power produced by this engine when it is operated at 1800 rpm. Use constant specific heats at room temperature.
