Part—A, 10x2=20 Answer All Questions ‘Why is ignition necessary in SI engines? Define volumetric efficiency of a Cl engine, Define relative efficiency of an engine. Define Octane number of a fuel. Define Cetane number of a fuel, What do you mean ignition delay in a Cl engine? Whatis the necessity of drawing a heat balance diagram in IC engines? ‘What is firing order of an engine?How is it decided? Write the reasons for the formation of hydrocarbon emissions in two stroke engines. Write shortly on aldehyde emissions Part-B 5x16=80 Answer any five questions (a) How do you determine the air consumption in a Clengine? (4) (b) A four cylinder, four stroke diesel engine develops 28kW at 2000rpm. Its brake specific fuel consumption(bsfe) is 0.28kg/kWh. Calculate the power output of the engine and its bsfe when the fuel rate is reduced by 40% at the same speed. Mechanical efficiency is 80%, Assume that the indicated thermal efficiency changes linearly2. 13. 14. 15, 16, 47. 18, with equivalence ratio and there is 1% increase in indicated thermal efficiency for every 6% increase in equivalence ratio. Equivalence ratio(@) at higher fuel flow rate is 0.666. ()What are the requirements of ignition systems? (6) (i) With the help of neat sketch explain the working of battery coil ignition system.
