Question: EXAMPLE PROBLEM 3 - 1 A four - cylinder, 2 . 5 - liter, SI automobile engine operates at WOT on a four - stroke

EXAMPLE PROBLEM 3-1A four-cylinder, 2.5-liter, SI automobile engine operates at WOT on a four-stroke air- standard Otto cycle at 3000 RPM. The engine has a compression ratio of 8.6:1, a mechanical efficiency of 86%, and a stroke-to-bore ratio S/B =1.025. Fuel is isooctane with AF =15, a heating value of 44,300 kJ/kg, and combustion efficiency n =100%. At the start of the compression stroke, conditions in the cylinder combustion chamber are 100 kPa and 60\deg C. It can be assumed that there is a 4% exhaust residual left over from the previous cycle.Do a complete thermodynamic analysis of this engine.For one cylinder: Displacement volume: Va =2.5 liter/4=0.625 L =0.000625 m^3 dFor the example problem 3.1, if the expansion is increased so that the pressure at the end of the power stroke is the atmospheric pressure (Atkinson cycle) obtain:1. the expansion ratio2. the extra work gained3. the efficiency4. the exhaust temperature
