Question
A test on a one-cylinder Otto cycle engine yields the following data: 950 N-m torque; 758
kPa mean effective pressure; 28-cm bore; 30.5-cm stroke; 300 rpm; and 0.003 kg/s fuel
consumption with a heating value of 41 860 kJ/kg. Determine (a) the engine thermal
efficiency; (b) the engine mechanical efficiency; (c) the fuel cost per hr if fuel costs 50
cents per liter. The specific gravity is 0.82.
