In the previous article, we have discussed the Carnot cycle and Stirling Cycle with its efficiency. The Ericsson Cycle also resembles the Carnot cycle with the constant pressure process with the constant temperature processes. Whereas the Stirling is a constant volume with the constant temperature. Ericsson Cycle In this Ericsson Cycle, there are two Isothermal processes and two Isobaric […]
What is Stirling Cycle?
In the previous article we have discussed the Carnot cycle, and its efficiency. But the Carnot cycle has a low mean effective pressure. To increase the mean effective pressure to theoretically achieve the maximum efficiency, there are some modifications can be done to the Carnot cycle. This modified Carnot cycle is called the Stirling Cycle […]
What is Carnot Cycle and Carnot Engine?
Carnot cycle is a reversible Air Standard Cycle, where Internal Engines can be compared in terms of performance to judge the degree of perfection. So it is the perfect standard engine. Carnot Cycle Sadi Carnot is a French engineer, who first proposed the Reversible cycle in 1824. The working medium receives the Heat energy from the high […]
What is an Air Standard cycle? What are the assumptions for the Air Standard Cycle?
We have been discussing the different internal combustion engines. Analysing these internal combustion engines processes such as the Suctions, compression, combustion and exhaust are not an easy task. So this analysis is complicated with the real thermodynamic cycle. We have to make this cycle idealised by a few assumptions in these processes. With is idealised cycle […]
What is Mean Effective Pressure? | IMEP, BMEP, FMEP |
In Reciprocating Internal Combustion engines, it is the measure of the capacity to do the work. The Mean effective pressure means the simply average pressure acting on the piston during the complete thermodynamic cycle in a Reciprocating internal combustion Engine. Mean Effective Pressure AS we said it is an average pressure acting on the piston […]
