8. Calculate the brake thermal efficiency of a supercharged 4-cylinder, four stroke cycle Diesel engine with a bore and stroke of 3.94” x 5.91”. The compression ratio is 14. Using a brake torque analysis, the dynamometer reads a scale of 143.3 pounds with 13.8” arm at 440 rpm. For a period of 14 minutes of test, 1.433 pounds of fuel with 40,702 KJ/kg heating value are completely burned with air with fuel-air ratio of 0.07.
a. The torque exerted by a shaft in a Prony brake with an arm length of 1.85-feet and the scale reading of 250-lb of force.
b. The BHP of an engine with a torque value (from letter a) turning at 1800 rpm.
