a)The bore of each cylinder in a six-cylinder car engine is 45 mm and the stroke for each piston is 125 mm. calculate the cubic capacity of the engine in cubic centimetres (cm3 ); and calculate the clearance volume per cylinder for a compression ratio, r, of 8.75. b) The bore of each cylinder in a four-cylinder four-stroke internal combustion engine is 38 mm and the stroke of each piston is 165 mm. During testing, the engine runs at 180 revolutions per minute (rpm) with a pressure-volume indicator diagram showing a mean net area of 3.4 cm2 and a diagram length of 1.2 cm. The pressure scale on the indictor diagram is set to 150 kN/m2 per cm. Calculate the mean effective pressure (m.e.p) and the indicated power developed by this four-cylinder four-stroke engine.

Question

a)The bore of each cylinder in a six-cylinder car engine is 45 mm and the stroke for each piston is 125 mm. calculate the cubic capacity of the engine in cubic centimetres (cm3 ); and calculate the clearance volume per cylinder for a compression ratio, r, of 8.75.

b) The bore of each cylinder in a four-cylinder four-stroke internal combustion engine is 38 mm and the stroke of each piston is 165 mm. During testing, the engine runs at 180 revolutions per minute (rpm) with a pressure-volume indicator diagram showing a mean net area of 3.4 cm2 and a diagram length of 1.2 cm. The pressure scale on the indictor diagram is set to 150 kN/m2 per cm. Calculate the mean effective pressure (m.e.p) and the indicated power developed by this four-cylinder four-stroke engine.
