This document contains a practice exam for a combustion engineering course. It consists of 9 multiple choice questions testing concepts related to air-standard cycles, including Otto, Diesel, and Dual cycles. The questions calculate various thermodynamic values like pressure, temperature, work, and efficiency at different points in the cycles. They require applying equations of state and properties of ideal gases to analyze cycle processes like compression, combustion, and expansion.
