Abstract
 

The non-endoreversibility factor arising from the Clausius inequality is introduced to analyze the influence of two adiabats and two non-adiabats processes on the performance characteristics of the Otto cycle using the generalized Redlich-Kwong gas as the working substance. The work output and efficiency of the cycle are calculated and the results obtained here are very general and useful, from which the work output and efficiency of the Otto heat engine cycle using Redlich-Kwong, Van der Waals, and ideal gases can also be directly derived.
