Question
During a test on a 3-cylinder four-stroke IC diesel engine with a cylinder bore and stroke length of 276 mm and 306 mm respectively, running at 547
r/min, the following results were obtained:
Mass on Dynamometer mass hanger (arm length = 0.815 m)
200.6 kg
Indicated mean effective pressure
428 kPa
Fuel consumption (with Qnet.v = 39.8 MJ/kg, density = 0.944 kg/l)
6 ml/s
Take acceleration due to gravity as 9.81 m per square seconds
Calculate the mechanical efficiency in decimal fraction to 3 decimal places,
No unit needed for answer
