Abstract: In the Air Standard model for any Internal Combustion Engine it is assumed that the Air/Fuel Mixture combusts instantaneously and the thermal energy is delivered immediately. However in real world applications a certain amount of time is needed for the reactants to combust. Therefore, as the reactants combust more rapidly, the performance of the engine approaches the Air Standard Model. In an Internal Combustion Engine which burns petroleum based fuel, a catalytic coating of platinum in the combustion chamber will cause the A/F mixture to burn more rapidly and causing the flames speed to increase. This will increase the Internal Combustion Engine's Mean Effective Pressure (MEP). This rapid burning of the reactants (A/F mixture) brings Internal Combustion Engines closer to the Air Standard Otto Cycle, the Air Standard Diesel Cycle, and the Air Standard Duel Cycle in Piston Engines and the Air Standard Brayton Cycle in Gas Turbine Engines.
