Otto, Diesel, and Dual Cycles A four-cylinder, four-stroke internal combustion engine has a bore of 2.55 in. and a stroke of 2.10 in. The clearance volume is 12% of the cylinder volume at bottom dead center and the crankshaft rotates at 3600 RPM. The processes within each cylinder are modeled as an air-standard Otto cycle with a pressure of 14.6 lbf/in.2 and a temperature of 100°F at the beginning of compression. The maximum temperature in the cycle is 5200°R. Based on this model, calculate the net work per cycle, in Btu, and the power developed by the engine, in horsepower.
