efficiency and pv diagram of otto cycle

report :
->firstly inputs like gemetric parameters like bore and stroke are declared along with initial stage parameters p1 and t1, v1 and v2 are derived from swept and clearance volume formulas.
->p2 and t2 are claculated in the combustion stroke wich is the 2nd state.
->p3 and v3 are calculated in the expansion stroke and t3 is agiven parameter.
->variables p4 and v4 are derived in the last stroke and then efficiency of otto cycle is calculated with the formula(1-(1/cr)^gamma-1)).
->finally all the four stages are plotted.
->pv compression and expansion are calculated using engine_kinematics function to plot the compression and expansion stroke.
errors :
->mistakenly took p1 instead of pi while determining swept and clearance volumes.
->forgot to take screenshots of errors.
