PART-2
Q2 An oil engine takes in air at 1.01 bar, 20°C and maximum cycle pressure is 69 bar. The (10)
compression ratio is 18:1. Calculate the air standard ficiency and mean effective
pressure based on the dual combustion cycle. Assume that heat added at constant volume
is equal to the heat added at constant pressure. Take c) = 1.005, cy = 0.718 and y = 1.4
Q3__{i) Discuss the requirements of a diese! injection system. (20)
(ii) What do you understand by ignition timing? Discuss the various factors which affect
ignition timing requirements.
Q4 —_(i).Bxplain the phenomieion6f\pre-gnition?. How: pre-ignition leads to detonation and (10)
vice-versa?
(ii) How C1. engine combustion chambers are classified?
Q5 (i) Discuss wet sump lubrication system with the help of a suitable sketch, (10)
(ii) Compare the merits and demerits of air and water cooling systems
Q6 The following data were recorded froma test on a single cylinder four-stroke oil engine. (10)
Cylinder bore = 150 mm, engine stroke = 250 mm, area of indicator diagram = 450 mm?
length of indicator diagram =50'tim, indicator spring rating = 1.2 mm, engine speed =
420 rpm, brake torque = 217 Nm, fuel consumption = 2.95 kg/h, calorific value of fuel =
44000 ki/kg, cooling water rate of flow = 0.068 kg/s, cooling water temperature rise =
45K, specific heat capacity of the cooling water = 4.1868 k]/kgK.
Calculate (a) the mechanical efficiency (b) the brake thermal efficiency (c) the specific
fuel consumption, and (d) draw up the heat balance in kw.
Q7 Write short notes on the following: (10)
(i) Alternative fuels for 1.C. Engines
(i) Components ofa gas turbine plant
