  1. INTERNAL COMBUSTION ENGINES

  2. Performance parameters: Engine performance is an indication of the degree of success with which it does its assigned job i.e. conversion of chemical energy contained in the fuel into the useful mechanical work. In evaluation of engine performance certain basic parameters are chosen and the effects of various operating conditions, design concepts and modifications on these parameters are studied.

  3. The basic performance parameters are numerated and discussed below: 1. Power and mechanical efficiency 2. Mean effective pressure and torque 3. Specific output 4. Volumetric efficiency 5. Fuel-Air ratio 6. Specific fuel consumption 7. Thermal efficiency and heat balance 8. Exhaust smoke and other emissions 9. Specific weight

  4. 1. Power and mechanical efficiency: • Indicated power. The total power developed by combustion of fuel in the combustion chamber is called indicated power. Where, k = Number of cylinders, Pmi = Indicated mean effective pressure in Pa or N/m2, L = Length of stroke in m, A = Area of piston, m2, and n = number of explosions per minute = N/2 for 4-stroke engine, = N for 2-stroke engine, N = speed of the engine on rpm.

  5. (ii) Brake power (B.P.). The power developed by an engine at the output shaft is called the brake power. Where, T = torque in N-m. The difference between I.P. and B.P. is called frictional power F.P. The ratio of B.P. to I.P. is called mechanical efficiency i.e. mechanical efficiency,

  6. 2. Mean effective pressure and torque: Mean effective pressure is defined as hypothetical pressure which is thought to be acting on the piston throughout the power stroke. If it is based on I.P. it is called indicated mean effective pressure (Im.e.p. or Pmi) and if based on B.P. is called brake mean effective pressure (Bm.e.p. or Pmb). Similarly frictional mean effective pressure (Fm.e.p. or Pmf) can be defined as: Since the power (P) of an engine is dependent on its size and speed, therefore it is not possible to compare engine on the basis of either power or torque. Mean effective pressure is the true indication of the relative performance of different engines.

  7. 3. Specific output: It is defined as the brake output per unit of piston displacement and is given by: 4. Volumetric efficiency: It is defined as the ratio of actual volume of the charge drawn in, during the suction stroke to the swept volume of the piston. The average value of this efficiency is from 70 to 80% but in case of supercharged engine it may be more than 100%, if air at about atmospheric pressure is forced into the cylinder at a pressure greater than that of air surrounding the engine.

  8. 5. Fuel-Air ratio: It is the ratio of the mass of the fuel to the mass of the air in the fuel-air mixture. Relative fuel-air ratio is defined as the ratio of the actual fuel-air ratio to that of stoichiometric fuel-air ratio required to burn the fuel supplied. 6. Specific fuel consumption: It is the mass of fuel consumed per kW developed per hour, and is a criterion of economical power production.

  9. 7. Thermal efficiency and heat balance: Thermal efficiency is the ratio of indicated work done to energy supplied by the fuel. mf= mass of fuel supplied in kg/hr and C.V. = lower caloric value of fuel, Then indicated thermal efficiency based I.P., And brake thermal efficiency based on B.P., Where B.P and I.P are in kW

  10. Heat balance sheet: The performance of an engine is generally given by heat balance sheet. To draw the heat balance sheet for I.C. engine, it should run at constant load till it attains steady state and the following readings are noted. Indicated mean effective pressure is calculated from an indicator diagram drawn with the help of an engine indicator. The quantity of the fuel used in given time and its calorific value, the amount, inlet and outlet temperature of cooling water and atmospheric and exhaust gas temperature are recorded.

  11. After calculating I.P. and B.P. the heat in different items is found as follows: Heat supplied by the fuel: (For petrol and oil engines) Where, For gas engines, Where,

  12. b)Heat absorbed in B.P. c)Heat taken away by cooling water Where, mw = mass of cooling water used in kg/s or kg/min or kg/hr, t1 = Inlet temperature of cooling water t2 = outlet temperature of cooling water Cpw = Specific heat of water.

  13. d)Heat taken away by exhaust gases Where, me = mass of exhaust gases in kg/s or kg/min or kg/hr, = ma + mf tr = room temperature, te = temperature of exhaust gases, Cpg = mean specific heat of exhaust gas at constant pressure, ma = mass of air supplied in kg/s or kg/min or kg/hr.

  14. The heat balance sheet from the above data can be drawn as follows:

  15. 8. Exhaust smoke and other emissions: Smoke is an indication of incomplete combustion. It limits the output of an engine if air pollution control is the consideration. Exhaust emissions have of late become a matter of grave concern and with the enforcement of legislation of air pollution in many countries; it has become necessary to view them as performance parameters. 9. Specific weight: It is defined as the weight of the engine in kg for each B.P. developed. It is an indication of the engine bulk.

  16. Basic measurements: 1. Measurement of air consumption by Air-box method: Fig shows the arrangement of the system. It consists of air-tight chamber fitted with a sharp edged orifice of known coefficient of discharge. The orifice is located away from the suction connection to the engine. Due to the suction of engine, there is a pressure of depression in the air box or chamber which causes the flow through orifice.

  17. For obtaining a steady flow, the volume of chamber should be sufficiently large compared with the swept volume of the cylinder; generally 500 to 600 times the swept volume. It is assumed that the intermittent suction of the engine will not affect the air pressure in the air box as volume of the box is sufficiently large, and pressure in the box remains same. A water manometer is used to measure the pressure difference causing the flow through the orifice. The depression across the orifice should not exceed 100 to 500mm of water.

  18. Let A = Area of the orifice in m2, d = Diameter of the orifice, m, hw = Head of water in m, Cd = Coefficient of discharge for orifice, ρa = Density of air in kg/m3 under atmospheric conditions, and ρw = Density of water in kg/m3 = 1000kg/m3. Head in meters of air is given by: The velocity of air passing through the orifice is given by, The volume of air passing through the orifice, Mass of air passing through the orifice is given by

  19. 2. Measurement of Brake Power i) By rope brake dynamometer: The arrangement for determination of B.P. of the engine is known as dynamometer. In rope brake dynamometer a rope is wound round the circumference of the brake wheel (Fig). To one end of the rope is attached a spring balance (S) and the other end carries the load (W). The speed of the engine is noted from the tachometer.

  20. If, W = Weight at the end of the rope, in N, S = Spring balance reading, in N, N = Engine speed, in r.p.m., Db = Diameter of the brake wheel, in m, dr = diameter of the rope, in m, and (Db + dr) = Effective diameter of the brake wheel,   Then work/revolution = Torque X angle turned per revolution Where,

  21. Therefore, • By prony brake dynamometer: • This arrangement consists of a pair of brake shoes (usually made of wood) which are held in place by means of spring loaded bolts. • The pressure on the rim of the brake drum (wheel) is adjusted with the help of the nuts. • Weights are placed on the load carrier at the end of the load bar (lever). Increasing the weights will increase the pressure of the brake shoes on the drum, which results in an increase in the frictional torque that the engine has to overcome.

  22. If W = weight of the load carrier L = distance between shaft axis and the line of action of weight. Frictional torque to be overcome = T = W.L Therefore the brake power of the engine, Where, W, load in Newton and L in metre.

  23. 3. Measurement of Indicated Power: i) By using Engine Indicator: Indicator power is usually determined with the help of a p-V diagram taken with the help of a engine indicator. The indicated power may be computed by measuring the area of the diagram, either with a planimeter or by ordinate method, and dividing by the stroke measurement in order to obtain the mean effective pressure (m.e.p.).

  24. Where, Pmi in bar or kPa or Pa if ‘s’ is in bar/mm or kPa/mm or Pa/mm respectively. Calculation of indicated power: If, Pmi = Indicated mean effective pressure in Pa, A = Area of piston, m2, L = Length of stroke in, m, n = Number of explosions per min, or Number of working strokes per min, = N, for 2-stroke engine, and = N/2, for 4-stroke engine, N = Speed of the engine, rpm, and k = Number of cylinders. i.e.,

  25. i.e., i.e., indicted power, If ‘k’ is the number of cylinders,

  26. ii) By Morse Test: This test is applicable only to multi-cylinder engines. The engine is run at the required speed and the torque is measured. One cylinder is cut-off by shorting the plug if an S.I. engine is under test, or by disconnecting an injector if a C.I. engine is under test. The speed falls because of the loss of power with one cylinder cut-off, but is restored by reducing the load. The torque is measured again when the speed has reached its original value.

  27. If the values of the I.P. of the cylinders are denoted by (considering 4-cylinder engine), and the power losses in each cylinder are denoted by then the value of B.P., B at the test speed with all cylinders firing is given by, If number 1 cylinder is cut-off, then the contribution I1 is lost: and if the losses due to that cylinder remain the same as when it is firing, then the B.P., B1, now obtained at the same speed is Subtracting equation (2) from (1), we get Similarly, Then for the engine,

  28. 4. Measurement of Frictional Power: i) Willan’s line method: At a constant engine speed the load is reduced in increments and the corresponding B.P. and gross fuel consumption are taken. A graph is then drawn of fuel consumption against B.P. as in Fig. The graph drawn is called Willan’s line and is extrapolated back to cut the B.P. axis at the point L. The reading OL is taken as the power loss of the engine at that speed. The fuel consumption at zero B.P. is given by OM; and if the relationship between fuel consumption and B.P. is assumed to be linear, then a fuel consumption OM is equivalent to a power loss of OL.

  29. This method is used only in case of unthrottled engines as discussed below: The Willan’s line is plotted for fuel consumption versus load at constant speed. The intersection of this line on the negative side of X-axis gives the Friction Power of the engine at that speed. The friction power (F.P.) is assumed constant from no load to full load at that constant speed. The F.P. includes not only the mechanical friction, but also the pumping power.

  30. For a throttled engine if such a test is carried out, the throttle position has to be varied from almost closed at no load to full open at maximum load, to keep the engine speed constant. Therefore the pumping load will be bigger at no load, and reduce gradually as the load is increased. In other words, the pumping power and therefore the F.P. will not remain constant, as the assumption in Willan’s line method.

  31. ii) By Morse test: In Morse test (already discussed), the frictional power can be found by subtracting Therefore, Where ‘n’ is the number of cylinders.

  32. iii) Motoring test: In this test the engine is first run up to the desired speed by its own power and allowed to remain under the given speed and load conditions for some time so that oil, water and engine component temperature reach stable conditions. The power of the engine during this period is absorbed by a dynamometer.

  33. The fuel supply is then cut-off and by suitable electric switching devices the dynamometer is converted to run as motor to drive or ‘motor’ the engine at the same speed at which it was previously running. The power supply to the motor is measured which is a measure of F.P. of the engine. Motoring test gives a very good insight into the various causes of losses and is much more powerful tool. This test gives a higher value of F.P. as compared to that given by Willan’s line method.

  34. 5. Measurement of fuel consumption: The mass rate of fuel consumption is measured by noting the time taken for the consumption of a known volume of fuel. If V cc of fuel is consumed in ‘t’ seconds, then mass rate of fuel consumption is

  35. 6. Measurement of Heat carried away by cooling water: The heat carried away by cooling water is measured by measuring the water flow rate through the cooling jacket and rise in temperature of the water during its flow through the engine block. The inlet and exit temperatures of cooling water are measured by thermometers inserted in the wells provided. The flow rate of water is measured by collecting the water in the bucket over a specified period and by weighing the water collected. The water flow rate can also be measured by using a rotameter or flow meter. The heat carried away by cooling water is given by Where, mw = mass flow rate of water in kg/sec, Cpw = specific heat of water in kJ/kg-K, t1 and t2 = inlet and outlet temperature of water.

  36. 7. Measurement of heat carried away by exhaust gases: The mass of the exhaust gases is equal to the sum of the masses of air and fuel. Mass flow rate of exhaust gas is given by, ma = mass flow rate of water mf = mass flow rate of fuel therefore heat carried away by exhaust gases is given by Where, Cpe = specific heat of exhaust gases in kJ/kg-K te = temperature of exhaust gases. tr= ambient temperature.
