Question
A four-stroke, four cylinder racing engine of capacity 2.495 litres has a bore of 94 mm and a compression ratio
of 12/1. When tested against a dynamometer with a torque arm of 0.461 m a maximum load of 622 N was
obtained at 5000 rev/min, and at a peak speed of 6750 rev/min the load was 547 N. The minimum fuel
consumption was 17.2 ml/s at a speed of 5000 rev/min, the specific gravity of the fuel being 0.735, and calorific
value of 44200 kJ/kg.
Calculate:
3.1
The maximum brake mean effective pressure
3.2
The maximum brake power
3.3
The minimum specific fuel consumption
3.4
The maximum thermal efficiency at maximum torque
3.5
The air standard efficiency
