During the expansion process of the ideal Otto cycle, the gas is a mixture whose volumetric composition is 28 percent nitrogen, 10 percent oxygen, 25 percent water, and 37 percent carbon dioxide. Calculate the thermal efficiency of this cycle when the air at the beginning of the compression is at 12 psia and 55°F, the compression ratio is 7, and the maximum cycle temperature is 1500°F. Model the heat-addition and heat-rejection processes using constant gas properties that are the average of the air and expansion gas properties.
