Related Engineering Thermodynamics MCQ with Answers
Answer is:
Otto cycle is more efficient than Diesel cycle
Answer is:
two isentropics, one constant volume and one constant pressure
Explanation:
Diesel cycle was devised by Dr. Rudolph Diesel in 1893, with an idea to attain a higher thermal efficiency, with a high compression ratio. This is an important cycle on which all the diesel engines work. It is also known as constant pressure cycle as heat is received at a constant pressure.
The ideal diesel cycle consists of two reversible adiabatic or isentropic, a constant pressure and a constant volume process.
