Introduction

Otto Cycle

Piston and cylinder.

  1. adiabatic expansion process power
  2. Isochoric cooling and compression: Exhaust
  3. Isobaric expansion: Intake
  4. Adiabatic compression
  5. Isochoric process: Combustion of fuel (heat is added in a constant volume; the burning of the gasoline-air mixture is instantaneous)

Ideal Gas and Ideal Otto
