Here is a computerized version of 'Otto Cycle', based on MS-Excel that can prove to be very handy for quick calculations in Engineering Thermodynamics/ Applied Thermodynamics class. The students can vary a whole range of parameters and visualize its influence on P-v and T-s curves, as well as properties at different state points/ Work or heat input/output in different processes. The tool provides for a verification of First Law for a closed system as well.
