1.Introduction
In
internal
combustion
engines
(ICE),
the
conversion of heat energy into mechanical work is a
complicated process. To examine all these changes
quantitatively and to account for all the variables,
creates a very complex problem.
1.Introduction…
The two commonly employed approximations of an
actual engine in order of their increasing accuracy
are (a) the air-standard cycle and (b) the fuel-air
cycle. They give an insight into some of the
important

1.Introduction…
In the air-standard cycle the working fluid is
assumed to be air. The values of the specific heat of
air are assumed to be constant at all temperatures.
This ideal cycle represents the upper limit of the
performance, which an engine may theoretically
attain.
2. Air-standart cycle
The analysis of the air-standard cycle is based on the following assumptions:
1. The working fluid in the engine is always an ideal gas, namely pure air with
constant specific heats.
2. A fixed mass of air is taken as the working fluid throughout the entire cycle. The
cycle is considered closed with the same air remaining in the cylinder to repeat the
cycle. The intake and exhaust processes are not considered.
3. The combustion process is replaced by a heat transfer process from an external
source.
4. The cycle is completed by heat rejection to the surrounding until the air temperature
and pressure correspond to initial conditions. This is in contrast to the exhaust and
intake processes in an actual engine.
2. Air-standart cycle…
5. All the processes that constitute the cycle are reversible.
6. The compression and expansion processes are reversible adiabatic.
7. The working medium does not undergo any chemical change throughout the cycle.
8. The operation of the engine is frictionless.
Because of the above simplified assumptions, the peak temperature, the pressure, the
work output, and the thermal efficiency calculated by the analysis of an air-standard
cycle are higher than those found in an actual engine. However, the analysis shows the
relative effects of the principal variables, such as compression ratio, inlet pressure, inlet
temperature, etc. on the engine performance.
2. Air-standart cycle…
In this lecture, the following air-standard cycles are described and their work output,
thermal efficiency, and mean effective pressure are evaluated:
1. Otto cycle
2. Diesel cycle
3. Dual cycle
Some shortcomings of these ideal cycles are obvious, but these cycles give a valuable
insight into real effects and possibilities.
3. Analysis of Dual cycle
It is a theoretical cycle for modern high speed diesel engines. The heat supplied is
partly at constant volume and partly at constant pressure. This cycle is also called the
mixed cycle or limited pressure cycle. The compression and expansion processes are
isentropic and heat is rejected at constant volume. The p-V and T-s diagrams are
shown in Figures 3.1 (a) and (b) respectively.

3. Analysis of Dual cycle…
Equation (3.11) shows that the increase in the compression ratio r, and the higher values of
the adiabatic exponent cause an increase in the thermal efficiency. With a constant amount
of heat added, the values of α and β depend on what part of the heat is added at constant
volume and what part at constant pressure. An increase in the value of α and the
corresponding reduction in β results in a higher thermal efficiency.

4. Analysis of Otto cycle
A German scientist, A. Nicolaus Otto in 1876 proposed an ideal air-standard cycle with
constant volume heat addition, which formed the basis for the practical spark-ignition
engines (petrol and gas engines). The cycle is shown on p-V and T-s diagrams in Figure
4.1(a) and Figure 4.1(b) respectively.
