The interesting thing about the engines shown is that all the heat
in occurs at T(hot) and all the heat out is at T(cold). So, all
those cycles are Carnot cyclaes.
Make a P-V diagram for an arbitrary, reversible cycle.
At the point of highest temperature, T(hot), draw a isotherm;
similarly at T(cold), the lowest temperature of operation.
