So which is correct? This statement or your latest.
As I stated check Wicki, Otto cycle includes both diesel and spark ignition. HCCI engines use spark ignition initially until the heat energy necessary to obtain HCCI becomes available.
The operational cycle remains Otto regardless of the ignition source.
Provide proof of your definition with references, as I have.
