An Otto Cycle has air operating as the working fluid. The airbegins the compression process at 90 kPa and 40oC. During the heataddition process, the maximum temperature of the air (T3) is2000oC. The compression ratio of the cycle is 9.2. Treating this asa “Hot Air Standard Cycleâ€, determine the temperature and pressureat the end of each process, the net work per kg of air produced inthe cycle, the thermal efficiency of the cycle, and the meaneffective pressure.
