In this unit an electric motor drives the gear pump through a reduction gear
at a speed of 40 rpm. The pump is positioned in the chamber through
which fuel is passing from the heater to the fuel pumps or combustion
equipment. Tapping points are provided to enable the pressure difference
to be measured by means of a differential pressure gauge. The gauge is
calibrated directly in terms of viscosity. Parts in contact with the fuel are of
stainless steel for corrosive resistance.
cylinder. The mean effective or average pressure [Pm] can now be used
to determine the workdone in the cylinder.
Calculations
Area of the indicator diagram = a [mm2]
Average height of the diagram = a [mm2] / l [mm]
Average mean indicator pressure = a [mm2] / l [mm] x k [bar / mm]
or Pm = ( a / l ) x k [bar]
where k = spring scale in bar per mm
