A standard spark ignition piston-cylinder automobile engine has a compression ratio of 8.60 to 1, and the intake air is at 0.100 MPa, 17.0°C.
For an isentropic compression process, use the gas tables (Table C.16b) to determine
a. The work required per unit mass of air compressed.
b. The temperature at the end of the compression stroke.
c. The pressure at the end of the compression stroke.
