A four-cylinder, four-stroke internal combustion engine operates at 2800 RPM. The processes within each cylinder are modeled as an air-standard Otto cycle with a pressure of 14.7 lbf/in. 2 , a temperature of 80 8 F, and a volume of 0.0196 ft 3 at the beginning of compression. The compression ratio is 10, and maximum pressure in the cycle is 1080 lbf/in.Write possible Assumptions no less than three assumptionsDetermine, using a cold air-standard analysis with k 5 1.4, the power developed by the engine, in horsepower, and the mean effective pressure, in lbf/in.

Answer:

1) 287760.4 Hp

2) 18410899.5 kPa

Explanation:

The parameters given are;

p₁ = 14.7 lbf/in² = 101325.9 Pa

v₁ = 0.0196 ft³ = 0.00055501 m³

T₁ = 80°F = 299.8167 K

k = 1.4

Assumptions;

1) Air standard conditions are appropriate

2) There are negligible potential and kinetic energy changes

3) The air behaves as an ideal gas and has constant specific heat capacities of temperature and pressure

1) Process 1 to 2

Isentropic compression

T₂/T₁ = (v₁/v₂)^(1.4 - 1) = 10^0.4

p₂/p₁ = (v₁/v₂)^(1.4)

p₂ = p₁×10^0.4 =  101325.9*10^0.4 = 254519.153 Pa

T₂ = 299.8167*10^0.4 = 753.106 K

p₃ = 1080 lbf/in² = 7,446,338 Pa

Stage 2 to 3 is a constant volume process

p₃/T₃ = p₂/T₂

7,446,338/T₃ =   254519.153/753.106

T₃ = 7,446,338/(254519.153/753.106) = 22033.24 K

T₃/T₄ = (v₁/v₂)^(1.4 - 1) = 10^0.4

T₄ = 22033.24/(10^0.4) = 8771.59 K

The heat supplied, Q₁ = cv(T₃ - T₂) = 0.718*(22033.24 -753.106) = 15279.14 kJ

The heat rejected = cv(T₄ - T₁) = 0.718*(8771.59 - 299.8167) = 6082.73 kJ

W(net) = The heat supplied - The heat rejected = (15279.14 - 6082.73) = 9196.41 kJ

The power = W(net) × RPM/2*1/60 = 9196.41 * 2800/2*1/60 = 214582.9 kW

The power by the engine = 214582.9 kW = 287760.4 Hp

2) The mean effective pressure, MEP  = W(net)/(v₁ - v₂)

v₁ = 0.00055501 m³

v₁/v₂ = 10

v₂ = v₁/10 = 0.00055501/10 = 0.000055501

MEP  = 9196.41/(0.00055501 -  0.000055501) = 18410899.5 kPa
