The formula to calculate the Otto Cycle Efficiency is:
\[ \text{OTE} = 1 - \frac{\text{Initial Temperature}}{\text{Final Temperature}} \]
Otto Cycle Efficiency (OTE) is the efficiency of the Otto cycle, an idealized thermodynamic cycle that describes the functioning of a typical spark ignition piston engine. It is a thermodynamic cycle mostly found in automobile engines. Initial Temperature is the measure of hotness or coldness of a system at its initial state. Final Temperature is the measure of hotness or coldness of a system at its final state.
Let's assume the following values:
Using the formula:
\[ \text{OTE} = 1 - \frac{305}{345} \approx 0.115942028985507 \]
The Otto Cycle Efficiency is approximately 0.115942028985507.
