5. An ideal Otto engine, operating on an air standard with k=1.35 has a compression ratio of 5. At the beginning of the compression the volume is 6ft?, the pressure is 13.75psia and the temperature is 100°F. During the constant volume heating, 340Btu of heat are added per cycle. Calculate (a) % clearance, (b) Peak temperature and pressure of the cycle ("F and psia), (c) thermal efficiency (%) and (d) mean effective pressure in psia.
Theory and Design for Mechanical Measurements
Measurement is a term that refers to analyzing a manufactured component regarding the degree of accuracy for dimensions, tolerances, geometric profile, roundness, flatness, smoothness, etc. Measurement always involves comparing the manufactured component or the prototype with a standard specimen whose dimensions and other parameters are assumed to be perfect and do not undergo changes with respect to time.Precisely in mechanical engineering the branch that deals with the application of scientific principles for measurements is known as metrology. The domain of metrology in general deals with various measurements like mechanical, chemical, thermodynamic, physical, and biological measurements. In mechanical engineering, the measurements are limited to mechanical specific such as length, mass, surface profile, flatness, roundness, viscosity, heat transfer, etc.
Basic principles of engineering metrology
Metrology is described as the science of measurement, precision, and accuracy. In other words, it is a method of measurement based on units and predefined standards.
