Q199

The air standard efficiency of an Otto cycle compared to diesel cycle for the given compression ratio is

A.
Same
B.
Less
C.
More
Answer
D.
More or less depending on power rating

Answer: Option C

Solution

Answer: Option C
Solution:
The air standard efficiency of an Otto cycle compared to diesel cycle for the given compression ratio is More. Otto cycle is more efficient than Diesel cycle for a given compression ratio. For constant maximum pressure and heat input, the air standard efficiency of gas power cycle is in the order
