    Otto cycle is a four-stroke combustion cycle used in spark-ignition engines.

    • It consists of four processes: intake, compression, power, and exhaust.

    • During the intake stroke, the fuel-air mixture is drawn into the cylinder.

    • In the compression stroke, the mixture is compressed to a high pressure and temperature.
