Diesel Cycle and the Brayton Cycle
Chapter 9b
Rudolph Diesel
German inventor who is famous for the development of the diesel engine
The diesel engine is based on a compression ignition system http://www.autonews.com/

Diesel Engines
No spark plugFuel is sprayed into hot compressed
air

The only difference is in process 2-3
Consider Process 2-3
This is the step where heat is transferred into the system
We model it as constant pressure instead of constant volume

Consider Process 4-1
This is where heat is rejectedWe model this as a constant v process
That means there is no boundary work

rc is called the cutoff ratio – it’s the ratio of the cylinder volume before and after the combustion process

The efficiency of the Otto cycle is always higher than the Diesel cycle
Why use the Diesel cycle?Because you can use higher
compression ratios

Remainder of the Chapter
I’m not skipping the other sections in this chapter because they are unimportant, or uninteresting
We just don’t have time!!
