Actually right answer is 1, when cutoff is 1, efficiency of diesel cycle approaches efficiency of Otto cycle at same compression ratio.

Answer is C.

Because of the value of the cut-off ratio is ZERO put the value in equation of diesel cycle then both are equal.

Cut off ratio is nothing but ratio of volume after heat addition to vol before heat addition. V3/v2 (in diesel cycle).

It is ratio of volume after heat addition to volume before heat addition in diesel cycle at constant pressure.

V2/V1.

Answer is B.

When cutoff is decreased, diesel cycle efficiency approaches (not equal) to the otto cycle efficiency.

If Cut off ratio equal to one.
Then efficiency diesel cycle equal to the efficiency of otto cycle.

Because, generally the volume will obviously increase after heating. And so it is greater than 1.0.

Parmesh said:   8 years ago
It is ratios of two constant volume of decrease and increases the cp and CF or acrobatics process.

If cut off ratio becomes 1 that cycle would be consist of only 3 processes. What about that?
