1. The following details were noted in a test on a single-cylinder four-stroke
oil engine: bore = 150 mm; stroke = 160 mm; speed of engine = 500
rpm; fuel consumption = 0.0475 kg/min; calorific value of fuel = 42,000
kJ/kg; the difference in tension on either side of the brake pulley = 400 N;
brake circumference = 2.2 m; length of the indicator diagram = 50 mm;
area of positive loop of indicator diagram = 475 mm²; area of negative
loop = 25 mm?; spring constant = 0.8333 bar per mm.
Calculate:
d) The Brake thermal efficiency, in percent
kg
e) The Brake Specific Fuel Consumption,
bkW-hr
