PLEASE ANSWER QUESTION 13.7 AND MAKE SURE IT MATCHES ANSWER. 13.6 JUST LEFT FOR DATA.
13.6 A four-cylinder, four-stroke diesel engine has a bore of 212mm and a stroke of 292mm.
At full load at 720revmin the bmep is 5.93bar and the specific fuel consumption is
0.226kgkWh. The air-fuel ratio as determined by exhaust gas analysis is 251. Calculate
the brake thermal efficiency and the volumetric efficiency of the engine. Atmospheric
conditions are 1.01 bar and 15C, and Qnet,,, for the fuel may be taken as 44200kJkg.
(36%;76.1%)
13.7 The engine of Problem 13.6 is to be used as a dual-fuel engine. It is to burn methane
(calorific value 33480kJm3 at 1.013 bar and 15C), and has a pilot injection of of
10% of the input when running as a diesel engine. The air-fuel ratio for the oil is 251
as before, and for the methane 8.5/1. If the volumetric efficiency and the power output
remain the same, what is the brake thermal efficiency of the engine when running on
the dual fuel?
