Q7. A 4-s petrol engine delivers 35kw with a mechanical efficiency of 80 % .The fuel
consumption of the engine is 0.4 kg/kwhr and the A/F ratio is 14:1. The heating value of
the fuel is 43000kj/kg. Find
a) indicated power,
b) friction power,
c) break thermal efficiency,
d) fuel consumption/hr,
e) Air consumption/hr.
Q8. The following observations were recorded in a test of one hour duration on a single
cylinder oil engine working on four stroke cycle:
Bore = 300 mm
Stroke = 450 mm
Fuel used = 8.8 kg/hr
Calorific value of fuel = 41800 kJ/kg
Average speed = 200 rpm
Mean effective pressure = 5.8 bar
Brake friction load (W-S) = 1860 N
Quantity of cooling water = 650 kg/hr
Temperature rise = 22 oC
Diameter of the brakewheel = 1.22 m
Calculate mechanical efficiency and brake thermal efficiency. Draw heat balance for the
test on the percentage basis indicating the content of each item in the balance. What
inference can be drawn from the results about the performance of the engine?
Q9. From the data given below, calculate indicated power, brake power and draw a heat
balance sheet for a two stroke diesel engine run for 20 minutes at full load:
Speed = 350 rpm
mep = 3.1 bar
Net Brake Load = 640 N
Fuel Consumption = 1.52 kg
Cooling water = 162 kg
Water inlet temperature = 30 oC
Water outlet temperature = 55 oC
Air used per kg of fuel = 32 kg
Room temperature = 25 oC
Exhaust temperature = 305 oC
Cylinder diameter = 200 mm
Stroke = 280 mm
Brake diameter = 1m
Calorific value of fuel = 43900 kJ/kg
Steam formed per kg of fuel in the exhaust = 1.4 kg
specific heat of steam in exhaust = 2.09 kJ/kg K
Specific heat of dry exhaust gases = 1 kJ/kg K.
What inference can be drawn from the results about the performance of the engine?
