Heat addition process in dual cycle

AI Thread Summary
In a dual cycle, heat addition occurs first at constant volume and then at constant pressure to maximize energy retrieval. This sequence allows for more efficient energy conversion during the cycle. The PV diagram illustrates the areas enclosed by the curves, highlighting the net work produced by the cycle. The area under the curve represents the work done, emphasizing the importance of the heat addition process order. Understanding this process is crucial for optimizing performance in dual cycle engines.

why in dual cycle heat addition at constant volume process is first then after heat addition at constant pressure process is done?

Thread 'A practical way to vaporize fuel for high MPG?'

Here's a video by “driving 4 answers” who seems to me to be well versed on the details of Internal Combustion engines. The video does cover something that's a bit shrouded in 'conspiracy theory', and he touches on that, but of course for phys.org, I'm only interested in the actual science involved. He analyzes the claim of achieving 100 mpg with a 427 cubic inch V8 1970 Ford Galaxy in 1977. Only the fuel supply system was modified. I was surprised that he feels the claim could have been...

Thread 'Turbocharging carbureted petrol 2 stroke engines'

Hi everyone, online I ve seen some images about 2 stroke carbureted turbo (motorcycle derivation engine). Now.. In the past in this forum some members spoke about turbocharging 2 stroke but not in sufficient detail. The intake and the exhaust are open at the same time and there are no valves like a 4 stroke. But if you search online you can find carbureted 2stroke turbo sled or the Am6 turbo. The question is: Is really possible turbocharge a 2 stroke carburated(NOT EFI)petrol engine and...
