Abstract
Finite-time thermodynamic analysis of an air-standard Otto cycle is pe rformed in this paper. The relation between net work output and effici ency of the cycle is derived. The maximum net work output and the corr esponding efficiency bound of the cycle with heat transfer considerati ons are also found. Detailed numerical examples are given. The result obtained herein provides a guide to the performance evaluation and imp rovement for practical Otto engines. Published by Elsevier Science Ltd .
