What is the primary distinction between Otto cycle and Diesel cycle?

• Otto cycle uses charge ignition through a fuel injector, while Diesel cycle uses a spark plug

• Otto cycle is known as the Constant pressure cycle, while Diesel cycle is known as the Constant volume cycle

• Otto cycle has a low thermal efficiency, while Diesel cycle has a high thermal efficiency

• Otto cycle has a high compression ratio, while Diesel cycle has a low compression ratio
