An ideal Otto Cycle has a compression ratio of 9.2 and uses air as the working fluid. At the beginning of the compression process, air is at 98kPa and 20C. The pressure is doubled during the constant volume heat addition process. Assuming constant specific heats, determine:the amount of heat transferred to the air

answer : 609.804 kj/kg

Explanation:

Given data:

compression ratio (r)= 9.2

pressure given(p1) = 98 kPa

Initial temperature =  20 + 273 = 293 k

pressure during constant volume heat addition process = 2p1

note : specific heat at constant pressure and specific heat at  constant volume varies with temperature

we use T = 300k because it is closest to T1 = 293 k

hence at T = 300 K ( ideal gas properties of air )

             [tex]u_{1}[/tex]   = 214.07 Kj/kg

            [tex]v _{r1}[/tex] = 621.2

To get  [tex]v_{r2}[/tex] = [tex]v_{r1} * \frac{v_{2} }{r}[/tex] = 621.2 * 1 / 9.2 = 67.52

ALSO    at [tex]v_{r2}[/tex] = 67.52 ( from ideal gas properties )

                [tex]u_{2}[/tex] = 518.9 kj/kg

                T2 = 708.32 k

next we apply the gas equation

[tex]\frac{p1v1}{T1} = \frac{p2v2}{T2}[/tex]

hence  p2 = (9.2) * [tex]\frac{708.32}{293} * 98[/tex] = 2179.59 kpa

to determine T3  due to the constant volume heat addition

[tex]\frac{T3}{T2} = \frac{P3}{P2}[/tex]

Hence T3 = p3/p2 * T2 = 2( 708.32 ) = 1416.64 k

At T3 = 1416.64 k ( from ideal gas properties )

[tex]u_{3}[/tex] = 1128.704 kj/kg

[tex]v_{r3}[/tex] = 8.592

Determine the amount of heat transferred to the air

[tex]q_{in} = ( u_{3} - u_{2} )[/tex]

     = ( 1128.704  - 518.9 )

     = 609.804 kj/kg
