Air Standard Cycles Air standard cycles are idealized cycles based on the following approximations: A fixed amount of air modeled as an ideal gas (working fluid). The combustion process is replaced by a heat transfer from an external source. There are no exhaust and intake processes as in an actual engine. The cycle is completed by a constant-volume heat transfer process taking place while the piston is at the bottom dead center position. All processes are internally reversible. Cold air-standard analysis The specific heats are assumed constant at T a..2

Otto Cycle--Internal Combustion Engine The stroke ::: the distance the piston moves in one direction Bore ::: cylinder diameter Clearance volume ::: minimum volume Top dead center ::: a position when the piston moves to the minimum cylinder volume Bottom dead center ::: the position when the piston moves to the maximum cylinder volume. Displacement volume ::: The volume swept out by the piston as it moves from the top dead center to the bottom dead center position. Compression ratio r ::: the volume at bottom dead center divided by the volume at top dead center r V V max min V V BDC TDC.
