lämpövoimakierrosten
Lämpövoimakierrokset, known in English as thermodynamic cycles, are fundamental concepts in thermodynamics and engineering, describing the theoretical sequence of thermodynamic processes that a system undergoes as it transfers heat energy into mechanical work. These cycles are the basis for the operation of heat engines, such as those found in power plants and internal combustion engines.
A thermodynamic cycle typically involves a working substance that absorbs heat from a high-temperature reservoir, performs
Real-world cycles, like the Otto cycle (for gasoline engines) and the Diesel cycle (for diesel engines), approximate
