Recently, hybrid electric vehicles, which combine electric and conventional combustion systems, have become the most popular alternative by far. This is due to longer autonomy and more extended refueling networks in comparison with the recharging points system, which is still quite limited in some countries. This paper aims to conduct a literature review on thermodynamic models of heat engines used in hybrid electric vehicles and their respective configurations for series, parallel and mixed powertrain. It will discuss the most important models of thermal energy in combustion engines such as the Otto, Atkinson and Miller cycles which are widely used in commercial hybrid electric vehicle models. In short, this work aims at serving as an illustrative but descriptive document, which may be valuable for multiple research and academic purposes.

Generation of Entropy in Spark Ignition Engines
Int. J. of Thermodynamics ISSN 1301-9724 Vol. 10 (No. 2), pp. 53-60, June 2007 Generation of Entropy in Spark Ignition Engines Bernardo Ribeiro, Jorge Martins*, António Nunes Universidade do Minho, Departamento de Engenharia Mecânica 4800-058 Guimarães PORTUGAL [email protected] Abstract Recent engine development has focused mainly on the improvement of engine efficiency and output emissions. The improvements in efficiency are being made by friction reduction, combustion improvement and thermodynamic cycle modification. New technologies such as Variable Valve Timing (VVT) or Variable Compression Ratio (VCR) are important for the latter. To assess the improvement capability of engine modifications, thermodynamic analysis of indicated cycles of the engines is made using the first and second laws of thermodynamics. The Entropy Generation Minimization (EGM) method proposes the identification of entropy generation sources and the reduction of the entropy generated by those sources as a method to improve the thermodynamic performance of heat engines and other devices. A computer model created and implemented in MATLAB Simulink was used to simulate the conventional Otto cycle and the various processes (combustion, free expansion during exhaust, heat transfer and fluid flow through valves and throttle) were evaluated in terms of the amount of the entropy generated. An Otto cycle, a Miller cycle (over-expanded cycle) and a Miller cycle with compression ratio adjustment are studied using the referred model in order to evaluate the amount of entropy generated in each cycle. All cycles are compared in terms of work produced per cycle. Keywords: IC engines, Miller cycle, entropy generation, over-expanded cycle 1.

These engines a) ingest a mixture of fuel and air, b) compress it, c) cause it to react, thus effectively adding heat through converting chemical energy into thermal energy, d) expand the combustion products, and then e) eject the combustion products and replace them with a new charge of fuel and air.

Performance Analysis of a Diesel Cycle Under the Restriction of Maximum Cycle Temperature with Considerations of Heat Loss, Friction, and Variable Specific Heats S.S
Vol. 120 (2011) ACTA PHYSICA POLONICA A No. 6 Performance Analysis of a Diesel Cycle under the Restriction of Maximum Cycle Temperature with Considerations of Heat Loss, Friction, and Variable Specific Heats S.S. Houa;¤ and J.C. Linb aDepartment of Mechanical Engineering, Kun Shan University, Tainan City 71003, Taiwan, ROC bDepartment of General Education, Transworld University, Touliu City, Yunlin County 640, Taiwan, ROC (Received November 11, 2010) The objective of this study is to examine the influences of heat loss characterized by a percentage of fuel’s energy, friction and variable specific heats of working fluid on the performance of an air standard Diesel cycle with the restriction of maximum cycle temperature. A more realistic and precise relationship between the fuel’s chemical energy and the heat leakage that is constituted on a pair of inequalities is derived through the resulting temperature. The variations in power output and thermal efficiency with compression ratio, and the relations between the power output and the thermal efficiency of the cycle are presented. The results show that the power output as well as the efficiency where maximum power output occurs will increase with the increase of maximum cycle temperature. The temperature-dependent specific heats of working fluid have a significant influence on the performance. The power output and the working range of the cycle increase while the efficiency decreases with increasing specific heats of working fluid. The friction loss has a negative effect on the performance. Therefore, the power output and efficiency of the cycle decrease with increasing friction loss. It is noteworthy that the effects of heat loss characterized by a percentage of fuel’s energy, friction and variable specific heats of working fluid on the performance of a Diesel-cycle engine are significant and should be considered in practice cycle analysis.

Air Standard Assumptions Some Definitions for Reciprocation Engines
Air Standard Assumptions In power engines, energy is provided by burning fuel within the system boundaries, i.e., internal combustion engines. The following assumptions are commonly known as the air- standard assumptions: 1- The working fluid is air, which continuously circulates in a closed loop (cycle). Air is considered as ideal gas. 2- All the processes in (ideal) power cycles are internally reversible. 3- Combustion process is modeled by a heat-addition process from an external source. 4- The exhaust process is modeled by a heat-rejection process that restores the working fluid (air) at its initial state. Assuming constant specific heats, (@25°C) for air, is called cold-air-standard assumption. Some Definitions for Reciprocation Engines: The reciprocation engine is one the most common machines that is being used in a wide variety of applications from automobiles to aircrafts to ships, etc. Intake Exhaust valve valve TDC Bore Stroke BDC Fig. 3-1: Reciprocation engine.

Diesel Electric Power Plant: Working Principle, Layout, Performance and Thermal Efficiency, Combined Cycle Power Plant, Layout, Efficiency. Internal Combustion Engine and External Combustion Engine In an external combustion engine, the fuel isn't burned inside the engine. With an internal combustion engine, the combustion chamber lies right in the middle of the engine. An Internal combustion engines rely on the explosive power of the fuel within the engine to produce work. In internal combustion engines, the explosion forcefully pushes pistons or expels hot high-pressure gas out of the engine at great speeds. Both moving pistons and ejected high- speed gas have the ability to do work. In external combustion engines, combustion heats a fluid which, in turn, does all the work. Example: Atkinson, Brayton/Joule, Diesel, Otto, Gas Generator etc. An external combustion engine uses a working fluid, either a liquid or a gas or both, that is heated by a fuel burned outside the engine. The external combustion chamber is filled with a fuel and air mixture that is ignited to produce a large amount of heat. This heat is then used to heat the internal working fluid either through the engine wall or a heat exchanger. The fluid expands when heated, acting on the mechanism of the engine, thus producing motion and usable work.

Efficiency at Maximum Power of the Low-Dissipation Hybrid
energies Article Efficiency at Maximum Power of the Low-Dissipation Hybrid Electrochemical–Otto Cycle David Diskin 1 and Leonid Tartakovsky 1,2,* 1 Faculty of Mechanical Engineering, Technion—Israel Institute of Technology, Haifa 3200003, Israel; [email protected] 2 Grand Technion Energy Program, Technion—Israel Institute of Technology, Haifa 3200003, Israel * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 24 June 2020; Accepted: 24 July 2020; Published: 1 August 2020 Abstract: A novel analytical method was developed for analysis of efficiency at maximum power of a hybrid cycle combining electrochemical and Otto engines. The analysis is based on the low-dissipation model, which relates energy dissipation with energy transfer rate. Efficiency at maximum power of a hybrid engine operating between two reservoirs of chemical potentials is evaluated. The engine is composed of an electrochemical device that transforms chemical potential to electrical work of an Otto engine that uses the heat generated in the electrochemical device and its exhaust effluent for mechanical work production. The results show that efficiency at maximum power of the hybrid cycle is identical to the efficiency at maximum power of an electrochemical engine alone; however, the power is the product of the electrochemical engine power and the compression ratio of the Otto engine. Partial mass transition by the electrochemical device from the high to the low chemical potential is also examined. In the latter case, heat is generated both in the electrochemical device and the Otto engine, and the efficiency at maximum power is a function of the compression ratio. An analysis performed using the developed method shows, for the first time, that, in terms of a maximal power, at some conditions, Otto cycle can provide better performance that the hybrid cycle.
