Performance Characteristics of a Class of External Combustion Engines

Abstract:

The general cycle model of a class of external combustion engines is established in which the influence of the multi-irreversibilities mainly resulting from the linear heat-loss model between the high and low heat reservoir, and the irreversible adiabatic processes. Some important parameters such as the power output, efficiency and the temperatures of the working substance are calculated and some important characteristic curves are given. The results obtained in this paper may provide some theoretical guidance for the optimal design of the Carnot, Brayton, Braysson and some new heat engines.
