Question

What do you think are the advantages and disadvantages of isothermal constant volume high extension cycle? And how efficient do you think it can be?

Answer 1

Answer Explanation :

ADVANTAGES OF ISOTHERMAL PROCESS

• EASE OF MAINTENANCE: there is absence of direct contact between the combustible gas mixture and all moving part in this process
• LESS NOISE : These engines does not have valves so it is very simple in construction and produce less noise
• BETTER PERFORMANCE : these engine have better performance than other engines
• LOW TEMPERATURE : these engine can work on low temperature which is also an advantage

DISADVANTAGES OF ISOTHERMAL PROCESS :

• GREATER VOLUME AND GREATER WEIGHT: These engine require large volume and large weight
• SLOWER START: In this process the engine have very slower start which is a disadvantage
• HIGHER ECONOMIC COST : In this process we need more money this is also an disadvantage
