Performance Optimizations with Single-, Bi-, Tri-, and Quadru-Objective for Irreversible Atkinson Cycle with Nonlinear Variation of Working Fluid’s Specific Heat

Considering nonlinear variation of working fluid’s specific heat with its temperature, finite-time thermodynamic theory is applied to analyze and optimize the characteristics of an irreversible Atkinson cycle. Through numerical calculations, performance relationships between cycle dimensionless powe...
