#1.

Calculate the brake mean effective pressure in kPa. A 4 stroke, 2


cylinder engine with a bore stroke ratio of 10 cm x 12 cm operates at
1,250 rpm. The load on the 90-cm long brake arm is 65 kg. Calculate the
brake mean effective pressure in kPa.

#2.
A dynamometer test was done for one hour on a 4 cylinder engine. 23.6
kg of 25 API fuel was consumed in the process. Bore and stroke is 19.3
cm x 23.8 cm. Speed measured was 750 rpm and the torque is 21,433 kg-
cm. Determine the thermal efficiency of the engine.

#3.
A certain indicator card measures an area of 100 mm^2. The length of the
drawn actual engine cycle is 30 mm. The card scale is 1 bar/mm. Calculate
the mean effective pressure in kPa. Is this an indicated mep or a brake
mep?
#4.
An engine performance test was done. Bore and stroke is 25 cm x 35 cm.
Engine speed is 700 rpm. The engine is a 4-stroke type. Prony brake test
measured a power of 100 kW. Amount of air drawn into the engine is 288
cubic meters per hour. Calculate the volumetric efficiency of the engine.

#5.
One kmol of methane gas is to be used for a theoretical engine operating
between 1300 and 270 degrees Celsius. Calculate the amount of air needed
and the maximum thermal efficiency of the engine.
