Answer:
The work of the cycle.
Explanation:
The area enclosed by the cycle of the Pressure-Volume diagram of a Carnot engine represents the net work performed by the cycle.
The expansions yield work, and this is represented by the area under the curve all the way to the p=0 line. But the compressions consume work (or add negative work) and this is substracted fro the total work. Therefore the areas under the compressions are eliminated and you are left with only the enclosed area.
The pilot valve and spark igniter are energized, the pilot flame is proved, and then the main gas valve is energized.
