Thermodynamic analysis for a six stroke engine for heat recovery

The concept adding two more strokes to the Otto cycle to increase fuel efficiency is studied and presented here. It can be thought of as a four-stroke Otto cycle followed by a two-stroke heat recovery steam cycle or also known as six-stroke engine. In this project, thermodynamics analysis was perfor...

description The concept adding two more strokes to the Otto cycle to increase fuel efficiency is studied and presented here.
