Figure P16.61 shows the P–V diagrams for idealizations of three important real engines: the Brayton (gas turbine) engine, the Otto (four-stroke) automobile engine, and the diesel engine. For each of these cycles, there is no heat flow for the processes along the curves (a) Using the diagram for each engine, describe the sequence and name each thermodynamic process that constitutes the cycle, starting at point 1. (b) Identify the points of highest and lowest temperature for each engine.
