Details
DESCRIPTION :
The setup consists of four cylinders, four stroke diesel engine connected to dynamometer for loading. It is provided with necessary equipment and instruments for combustion pressure and crank-angle measurements. These signals are interfaced to computer for P-θ & P-V diagrams. The set-up also consists of air intake measuring unit, fuel measuring unit, temperature measuring unit and an exhaust gas calorimeter.
The setup enables study of engine performance for brake power, indicated power, frictional power, BMEP, IMEP, brake thermal efficiency, indicated thermal efficiency, Mechanical efficiency, volumetric efficiency, specific fuel consumption, A/F ratio and heat balance. Rotameters are provided for cooling water and calorimeter water flow measurement.
The educational software and data logging package has been developed for this unit. It is compatible to interfacing unit designed by KC Engineers. It provides a comprehensive educational software environment within which the investigations can be performed. Interfacing the set up with computer using software can do the real time data acquisition. Data can be transferred in Excel Files for further calculations, plotting graphs, printing etc. Sample readings can be tabulated according to requirement of experiment under study and results obtained can be compared.
