A hypothetical Diesel cycle have the following data:


P1 = 88.26 kPa
P2 = 3795.174 kPa

t1 = 15.6C
k = 1.35
rc = 2.5
25 cm x 38 cm
Calculate: a. Ideal thermal efficiency b. power from a 6 cylinder, 4-cycle,
327 rpm engine
2. The specific gravity of oil tested at 29.4C is 0.852. Find its API degrees.
3. A 39.37 cm x 55.88 cm, 32.7 rpm, 16 cylinder, 4-cycle stationary Diesel engine is
connected to a 3125-kVa (80% power factor) generator. It also drives a 30-kw
exciter. Assume a generator efficiency of 92% and determine bmep at rated load.
4. Specifications of a 4-cylinder, 4 cycle gas engine are 10.16 cm x 15.24 cm, 900 rpm.
Mechanical efficiency is 86%. Find the kw output of a direct-connected generator of
90% efficiency. When the indicated mep is 758.05 kPa.
