9-3 Air Standard Assumptions
• The working fluid is air, which continuously circulates in a closed loop and always behaves as an ideal gas.
• All the processes that make up the cycle are internally reversible.
• The combustion process is replaced by a heat-addition process from an external source.
• The exhaust process is replaced by a heat-rejection process that restores the working fluid to its initial state.

• At rc = 1, the Diesel and Otto cycles have the same efficiency.– Physical implication for the Diesel cycle: No change in volume when heat
is supplied.
– A high value of k compensates for this.
• For rc > 1, the Diesel cycle is less efficient than the Otto cycle.

Air-standard Carnot cycle
• Heat addition at constant temperature is difficult and costly.
– Work is required because fluid expands.
• Heat addition is limited because a large change in volume would imply a low mean pressure in the heat addition process.
– Frictional effects might become too great if the mean pressure is too low.

Cycle efficiency
• Ideal gas assumptions apply.
• All processes internally reversible
– Compressor and turbine efficiency are each 100%.
• Assume fuel added in the combustor is a small percent (mass or moles) of total flow, and thus air properties provide a good estimate of cycle performance.
