What is Otto Cycle Efficiency?
The Otto cycle is a description of what happens to a mass of gas as it is subjected to changes of pressure, temperature, volume, addition of heat, and removal of heat. The mass of gas that is subjected to those changes is called the system. The system, in this case, is defined to be the fluid (gas) within the cylinder. By describing the changes that take place within the system, it will also describe in inverse, the system's effect on the environment. In the case of the Otto cycle, the effect will be to produce enough net work from the system so as to propel an automobile and its occupants in the environment.
How to Calculate Otto Cycle Efficiency?
Otto Cycle Efficiency calculator uses OTE = 1-Initial Temperature/Final Temperature to calculate the OTE, Otto cycle efficiency is a description of what happens to a mass of gas as it is subjected to changes of pressure, temperature, volume, addition of heat, and removal of heat. OTE is denoted by OTE symbol.
