Power Cycles

– The Carnot cycle (totally reversible, int. and ext.) is the ideal cycle for heat engines

– The Otto cycle is the ideal cycle for spark ignition automobile engines

– The Diesel cycle is the ideal cycle for compression ignition engines

– The Brayton cycle is the ideal cycle for gas turbine engines

– The Rankine cycle is the ideal cycle for vapor power plants

WMM

Diesel Cycle– The ideal cycle for compression-ignition engines– Diesel cycles are designed to operate at higher

compression ratios, typically between 12~24

• The 4 cycles of the Diesel engine are:

(1--------2) Isentropic compression

(2--------3) P=constant heat addition (combustion process)

(3--------4) Isentropic expansion

(4--------1) Constant volume heat rejection

• By comparing the efficiencies of the Diesel and Otto cycles the efficiency of the Diesel cycle differs from the efficiency of an Otto cycle by the quantity in the brackets

• The quantity present in the brackets for the Diesel cycle is always greater than 1. therefore,

If only if both cycles are operating on the same compression ratio

WMM

Diesel Cycle

• The Diesel cycle is the ideal cycle for CI (internal combustion) engines

• The CI engine, first proposed by Rudolph Diesel in the 1890s, is very similar to the SI (spark ignition engines) of the Otto cycle

• The only thing that differs between the Otto and Dieselcycle is the method to ignite the combustion

» In the Otto cycle (spark-ignition engines also known as gasoline engines) the air-fuel mixture is compressed to a temperature that is below the autoignition temperature of the fuel and the combustion process is initiated by firing a spark plug

» In the Diesel cycle (also known as the internal combustion engine) the air is compressed to a temperature that is above the autoignition temperature of the fuel, and combustion starts on contact as the fuel is injected into the hot air

WMM

Diesel Cycle

• Remember that Diesel engines operate at much higher compression ratios than the spark-ignition engines

• The Diesel engines also burn the fuel more completely since they usually operate lower resolutions per minute than spark-ignition engines

• Thermal efficiencies of large diesel engines range from about 35 to 40 percent

• The higher efficiency and lower fuel costs of diesel engines make them the clear choice in application requiring a relativelylarge amount of power such as in:

» Locomotive engines» Emergency power generation units» Large ships and » Heavy trucks » As an example of how large a diesel engine can be, a 12-cylinder diesel

engine built in 1964 by the Fiat Corp. of Italy had a normal power output of 25,200 hp (18.8 MW) at 122rpm, a cylinder of 90 cm, and a stroke of 91 cm.
