A compression-ignition engine working on the Dual cycle takes in two-fifths of its total
heat supply at constant volume and the remaining at constant pressure. Calculate:
The pressure and temperature at the five cardinal points of the cycle.
(8 marks)
Pressure ratio and cut-off ratio.
The ideal thermal effieiency of the cycle.
Given: Compression ratio =15, Maximum pressure in the cycle =45 bar, Air intake at
1.8 bar and 25C,Cp=1.004kJkgK,Cv=0.717kJkgK
Fill the answers in the following tables:
A compression - ignition engine working on the
