A four-cylinder, four-stroke, 1.6-L gasoline engine operates on the Otto cycle with a compression ratio of 11. The air is at 100 kPa and 37°C at the beginning of the compression process, and the maximum pressure in the cycle is 8 MPa. The compression and expansion processes may be modeled as polytropic with a polytropic constant of 1.3. Using constant specific heats at 850 K, determine the specific fuel consumption, in g/kWh, defined as the ratio of the mass of the fuel consumed to the net work produced. The air– fuel ratio, defined as the amount of air divided by the amount of fuel intake, is 16.

IC engines

The term "engine" indicates a mechanical device/machine used to convert input energy to a specific mechanical output. The input energy may be in the form of chemical energy, thermal energy, or so on and mechanical output is in the form of mechanical energy (work done). Generally, the engines classify into two groups which are internal combustion type and external combustion type, and further, these two types can be classified into two types that are reciprocating and rotary engines.
