Actual Engine or Air-Fuel Cycles

Real engines operate on an open cycle with changing composition. There is a loss of mass during the cycle due to crevice flow and blowby past the pistons. In a real engine inlet flow may be all air, or it may be air mixed with up to 7% fuel. Specific heats of a gas have a fairly strong dependency on temperature and can vary as much as 30% in the temperature range of an engine (for air, cp = 1.004 kJ/kg-K at 300 K and cp = 1.292 kJ/kg-K at 3000 K ). Heat loss during combustion lowers actual peak temperature and pressure from what is predicted. The actual power stroke, therefore, starts at a lower pressure, and work output during expansion is decreased. SI engines will generally have a combustion efficiency of about 95%, while CI engines are generally about 98% efficient. SI engine is always somewhat less than what air-standard Otto cycle analysis predicts. This is caused by the heat losses,. friction, ignition timing, valve timing, finite time of combustion and blowdown, and deviation from ideal gas behavior of the real engine.
