Sketch carefully T-s diagrams for Otto and Brayton cycles on the basis of a logarithmic scale for T and a linear scale for s. What are the slopes of the constant pressure heating processes (Brayton) and the constant volume heating processes (Otto) on such diagrams?

Hint - write down the governing equations for the compression and expansion processes and the rest follow.
