The Otto Engine By: Nicolaus A. Otto Presented By: Harold Williams
The Man Behind the Machine • Nicolaus was a German inventor • Born in 1832 in Holzhausen an der Haide • His design was the first 4 stroke ICE to have any kind of practicality
The Machine • The Otto Engine is a single cylinder 4 stroke ICE. • It is one of the first engines to use a spark plug which is used to ingnite compressed air/fuel
The Otto Cycle • Any 4 stroke engine is an Otto Engine • The 4 strokes are: Intake, Compression, Combustion/Power, Exhaust. • The cycle is:1-2: adiabatic compression2-3: heat addition at constant volume3-4: adiabatic expansion and rejection of heat at constant volume
