Question: During a test on a single cylinder, four stroke engine having a compression ratio of 6, following data were recorded : Bore (=10 mathrm{~cm} ;)
During a test on a single cylinder, four stroke engine having a compression ratio of 6, following data were recorded :
Bore \(=10 \mathrm{~cm} ;\) Stroke \(=12.5 \mathrm{~cm} ;\) Indicated mean effective pressure \(=2.6 \mathrm{bar} ;\)
Dead load on dynamometer, \(W=60 \mathrm{~N}\); Spring balance reading, \(S=19 \mathrm{~N}\);
Effective radius of flywheel, \(R=40 \mathrm{~cm}\); Fuel consumption, \(\dot{m}_{f}=1.0 \mathrm{~kg} / \mathrm{h}\);
Calorific value of fuel used; \(C V=42000 \mathrm{~kJ} / \mathrm{kg} ;\) Speed \(N=2000 \mathrm{rpm}\).
Determine its
(a) indicated power,
(b) brake power,
(c) mechanical efficiency,
(d) overall efficiency,
(e) air standard efficiency, and
(f) relative efficiency.
