Question

1.How many piston strokes are there in an Otto cycle?

(Please Explain why?)

2.Attached in the following pages is the technical specification of a Caterpillar diesel generator.
By treating it as a power cycle, use the technical data to estimate the thermal efficiency of this
diesel generator. For simplicity, the unit ekW can be treated as equivalent to the unit kW. (Hint:
This is meant to be a simple problem, please don

Caterpillar is leading the power generation Market place with Power Solutions engineered to deliver unmatched flexibility, expandability, reliability, and cost-effectiveness.

Explanation / Answer

in otto cycle there are 2 strokes and 4 strokes also..

in 2 stroke otto cycle one is compression stroke another is expansion stroke

in 4 strokes auto cycle compression stroke ,heating stroke,expansion stroke and exhaust stroke(cooling stroke) are there,,,

...........

total heat rejection =1145.8+2472.5+342.6+249.0+163 =4372.9 kW

efficiency = output work /input energy = 2600/(2600+4372.9) =0.37287 =32.287%

........

ask if you have any more doubt
