A four-stroke cycle gas engine has a bore of 20 cm and a stroke of 40 cm. The compression ratio is 6. In a test on the engine the indicated mean effective pressure is 5 bar, the air to gas ratio is 6:1 and the calorific value of the gas is 12 MJ/m3 at NTP. At the beginning of the compression stroke the temperature is 77 °C and pressure 0.98 bar. Neglecting residual gases, determine the indicated power, the thermal efficiency and the relative efficiency of the engine at 250 rpm.

Question
A four-stroke cycle gas engine has a bore of 20 cm and a stroke of 40
cm. The compression ratio is 6. In a test on the engine the indicated
mean effective pressure is 5 bar, the air to gas ratio is 6:1 and the
calorific value of the gas is 12 MJ/m3 at NTP. At the beginning of
the compression stroke the temperature is 77 °C and pressure 0.98 bar.
Neglecting residual gases, determine the indicated power, the thermal
efficiency and the relative efficiency of the engine at 250 rpm.
