Are there any other cycles besides the Otto cycle used in car engines?

汽车发动机除了四冲程循环是否还有其他循环？

Gas turbine engines use the Brayton cycle. Wankel rotary engines use the Otto cycle, but they do it in a very different way than four-stroke piston engines.

In this configuration an increase in both power and efficiency can be achieved when compared to the Otto cycle.

在这一个在能源和提高效率可以达到配置相比，奥托循环。

For years he had contemplated the inefficiencies of the traditional four-stroke Otto cycle engine (named for its 1876 developer, Nikolaus A. Otto).
