Abstract
A model of an endoreversible Carnot engine is considered where the piston moves with a constant speed u. Expressions for the cycle time τ for the four branches, as well as output power, PW, are derived and the optimized root for maximum power is obtained in closed form. Our results are discussed in terms of the isothermal expansion ratio V*2 and temperature ratio a in a manner accessible to students.
