   The acausal bond graph of system \textbf{Cycle} is
   displayed in Figure \Ref{Cycle_abg} and its label
   file is listed in Section \Ref{sec:Cycle_lbl}.
   The subsystems are listed in Section \Ref{sec:Cycle_sub}.

The system has two heat engine ports: 
\begin{enumerate}
\item \textbf{[Heat]} and
\item \textbf{[Work]}
\end{enumerate}
By convention, energy flows in to the \textbf{[Heat]} port and out of
the \textbf{[Work]} port. Both ports are true energy ports.


The subsystem \textbf{CU} (Section \Ref{sec:CU}) is a two-port
component describing an ideal gas. It has two energy ports which, with
integral causality correspond to
\begin{enumerate}
\item Entropy flow in; temperature out
\item Volume rate of change in; pressure out
\end{enumerate}

Four \textbf{SS} components are set up as sensors to measure the
important quantities pertaining to the cycle:
\begin{enumerate}
\item \textbf{S} to measure the integrated entropy flow
\item \textbf{T} to measure the (absolute) temperature
\item \textbf{V} to measure the integrated volume change
\item \textbf{P} to measure the pressure
\end{enumerate}

   \end{table}
   
   A number of cycles can be built depending on the causality of the
   two ports \textbf{[Heat]} and \textbf{[Work]} of \textbf{Cycle}
   Some possible cycles listed in Tables \Ref{tab:cycles} where each
   table entry gives the causality on the heat and work ports
   respectively.
