Determine the thermal efficiency of an engine


Solve the following problem:

Figure represents a simplified PV diagram of the Sargent ideal-gas cycle. All processes are quasi-static, and the heat capacities are constant. Prove that the thermal efficiency of an engine performing this cycle is

η = (1 - γ ) T4 - T1 / T3 - T2 .
