Question: Consider a gasoline engine for a car as a steady device where air and fuel enters at the surrounding conditions 25C, 100 kPa and leaves

Consider a gasoline engine for a car as a steady device where air and fuel enters at the surrounding conditions 25°C, 100 kPa and leaves the engine exhaust manifold at 1000 K, 100 kPa as products assumed to be air. The engine cooling system removes 750 kJ/kg air through the engine to the ambient. For the analysis take the fuel as air where the extra energy of 2200 kJ/kg of air released in the combustion process, is added as heat transfer from a 1800 K reservoir. Find the work out of the engine, the irreversibility per kilogram of air, and the first- and second-law efficiencies.
