Introduction
Piston and cylinder.
- Adiabatic expansion process power. Combustion ends and power stroke begins.
- Isochoric cooling (Qout): Heat rejection. Power stroke ends, heat rejection starts.
- Isobaric compression: Exhaust
- Isobaric expansion: Intake
- Adiabatic compression
- Isochoric heating (Qin): Combustion of fuel (heat is added in a constant volume; the burning of the gasoline-air mixture is instantaneous)
