Answer:

a) i) The maximum pressure is approximately 122.37 bar

ii) The thermal efficiency is approximately 56.47%

iii) The mean effective pressure is approximately 20.974 bar

b) (b) Four types of internal combustion engine includes;

1) The diesel engine

2) The Otto engine

3) The Brayton engine

4) The Wankel engine

Explanation:

The parameters of the Otto cycle are;

The heat added, Q_{in} = 2,800 kJ/kg

The compression ratio, r = 8

The beginning compression pressure, P₁ = 1 bar

The beginning compression temperature, T₁ = 300 K

Cp = 1.005 kJ/kg·K

Cv = 0.718 kJ/kg·K

R = 287 kJ/kg·K

K = Cp/Cv = 1.005 kJ/kg·K/(0.718 kJ/kg·K) ≈ 1.4

T₂ = T₁×r^(k - 1)

∴ T₂ = 300 K×8^(1.4 - 1) ≈ 689.219 K

\dfrac{P_1\cdot V_1}{T_1}  = \dfrac{P_2\cdot V_2}{T_2}

P_2 = \dfrac{P_1\cdot V_1 \cdot T_2}{T_1 \cdot V_2}  = \dfrac{V_1}{V_2} \cdot  \dfrac{P_1 \cdot T_2}{T_1 } = r \cdot  \dfrac{P_1 \cdot T_2}{T_1 }

∴ P₂ = 8 × 1 bar × (689.219K)/300 K ≈ 18.379 bar

Q_{in} = m·Cv·(T₃ - T₂)

∴ Q_{in} = 2,800 ≈ 0.718 × (T₃ - 689.219)

T₃ = 2,800/0.718 + 689.219 = 4588.94 K

P₃ = P₂ × (T₃/T₂)

P₃ = 18.379 bar × 4588.94K/(689.219 K) = 122.37 bar

The maximum pressure = P₃ ≈ 122.37 bar

(ii) The thermal efficiency, \eta_{Otto}, is given as follows;

\eta_{Otto} = 1 - \dfrac{1}{r^{k - 1}}

Therefore, we have;

\eta_{Otto} = 1 - \dfrac{1}{8^{1.4 - 1}} \approx 0.5647

The thermal efficiency, \eta_{Otto} ≈ 0.5647

Therefore, the thermal efficiency ≈ 56.47%

(iii) The mean effective pressure, MEP is given as follows;

MEP = \dfrac{\left(P_3 - P_1 \cdot r^k \right) \cdot \left(1 - \dfrac{1}{r^{k-1}} \right)}{(k -1)\cdot (r - 1)}

Therefore, we get;

MEP = \dfrac{\left(122.37 - 1 \times 8^{1.4} \right) \cdot \left(1 - \dfrac{1}{8^{1.4-1}} \right)}{(1.4 -1)\cdot (8 - 1)} \approx 20.974

The mean effective pressure, MEP ≈ 20.974 bar

(b) Four types of internal combustion engine includes;

1) The diesel engine; Compression heating is the source of the ignition, with constant pressure combustion

2) The Otto engine which is the internal combustion engine found in cars that make use of gasoline as the source of fuel

The Otto engine cycle comprises of five steps; intake, compression, ignition, expansion and exhaust

3) The Brayton engine works on the principle of the steam turbine

4) The Wankel it follows the pattern of the Otto cycle but it does not have piston strokes

An ideal gas undergoes two processes: one frictionless and the other not. In both the cases, the gas is initially at 200 ℉ and 1
Zarrin [17]

Answer:

The process which has friction

Explanation:

The entropy is simply the change in the state of the things or the molecules in the system. It is simply the change in the energy of the system with a focus on the atoms in the system. This is also known as the internal energy of the system and is given the symbol, G. The friction contributes to the change in the energy of the system. This is because friction generates another form of energy - that is heat energy. This energy causes the internal temperature id the system to increase. Hence the greater change in the temperature.
