1.1 A four-cylinder diesel engine of 4-stroke type has stroke to bore ratio as 1.2 and the cylinder diameter is 12 cm. Estimate indicated power of the engine using the indicator diagram arrangement. Indicator card shows the diagram having area of 30 cm² and length as half of stroke. Indicator spring constant is 20 x 103 kN/m2 and engine is running at 2000 rpm. Also find out mechanical efficiency of engine if 10% of power is lost in friction and other losses.
