The following data are the observations made for a 30-minute trail of a two-stroke diesel engine. Net brake load = 600N, mep= 2.75bar, and N = 340rpm, fuel consumption = 1.36kg, cooling water inlet temperature = 300C, cooling water = 145kg, water outlet temperature = 60oC, room temperature = 25oC, exhaust gas temperature = 2950C, air used/kg fuel = 30kg, cylinder bore = 200mm, stroke 270mm, brake diameter = 1.1m, CV of the fuel = 43.7MJ/kg, steam formed per kg fuel in the exhaust = 1.3kg, specific heat of steam in exhaust = 2.093kJ/kgk, specific heat of dry exhaust gases = 1.01kJ/kgk. Calculate the indicated power and the brake power and make an energy balance of the engine
