Question 2
(a) In a 4-cylinder 4-stroke internal combustion engine, the cylinder bore is 78 mm and the stroke length is 95 mm . In a test, the brake mean effective pressure is 850 kPa and the speed is 2400 rpm .
(i) What is the total displacement volume of the engine? Express your answer in \(\mathrm{mm}^{3},\mathrm{~mL}\), and \(\mathrm{m}^{3}\).
(ii) Calculate the work done by gas on one piston in one full cycle.
(iii) Calculate the power output of the engine.
(b) Explain the term "normalisation of deviance" with reference to at least one well-known example of a failure or error in mechanical engineering.
(c) An electric motor has its highest efficiency at a speed of 1520 rpm . It propels a car with wheels of diameter 0.46 m . When the car is driving at \(45\mathrm{~km}/\mathrm{h}\), the motor should be running at maximum efficiency.
(i) What gear ratio from motor to wheel should be used?
(ii) Name and sketch two types of mechanism that could provide the required gearing.
