An air-standard Diesel cycle consists of the following processes: 1-2: Air is compressed isentropically. 2-3: Heat is added at constant pressure. 3-4: Air expands isentropically to the original volume. 4-1: Heat is rejected at constant volume. If γ and T denote the specific heat ratio and temperature, respectively, the efficiency of the cycle is

1 - T4 - T1 (γ - 1) (T3 - T2)

Correct Option: B
Heat applied,Qs = cp (T3 – T2)
Heat rejected, Qr = cV (T4 – T1)
η = 1 - | = 1 - | |||||
Qs | γ | (T3 - T2) |
