Directors Message
UPSC has introduced the sectional cutoffs of each paper and screening cut off in
three objective papers (out of 600 marks). The conventional answer sheets of only
those students will be evaluated who will qualify the screening cut offs.
In my opinion the General Ability Paper was easier than last year but Civil
Engineering objective Paper-I and objective Paper-II both are little tougher/
lengthier. Hence the cut off may be less than last year. The objective papers of ME
and EE branches are average but E&T papers are easier than last year.
Expected Minimum Qualifying Marks in Each OBJECTIVE Paper (out of 200 Marks)
Expected Minimum Qualifying Marks in Each CONVENTIONAL Paper (out of 200 Marks)
Note: These are expected screening cut offs for ESE 2016. MADE EASY does not
take guarantee if any variation is found in actual cutoffs.
MADE EASY team has tried to provide the best possible/closest answers, however if
you find any discrepancy then contest your answer at www.madeeasy.in or write your
query/doubts to MADE EASY at: info@madeeasy.in
MADE EASY owes no responsibility for any kind of error due to data insufficiency/misprint/human errors etc.

r (e 1)
For the Otto cycle, depends only on r, the compression ratio.
For the Diesel cycle, efficiency depends on r and (the cutt of reatio).
If compression ratio increase, for the diesel cycle, the expansion ratio (= r /) will also
increase, is always than r. is always greater than 1. And r is also always greater
than 1. Thus the negative value of numerator of diesel cycle will be lesser. Since r is
in the denominator of the negative term of the diesel cycle, the increase in of the
diesel cycle will be lesser than that of Otto cycle when r increases due to the other
factor.
If cut off ratio (= ) decrease it is clear from diesel , that the numerator of the negative
term will decrease more than the denominator. Thus the diesel cycle will increase.

35. During very cold weather conditions, cricket players prefer to wear white woolen sweaters
rather than coloured woolen sweaters. The reason is that white wool comparatively :

(a) 1 only (b) 2 only
(c) Both 1 and 2 (d) Neither 1 nor 2
Ans. (b)
While wool being good reflector hence bad emitter thus emits less heat to atmosphere.

Statement (II) : Pre-ignition is caused due to detonation.
Ans. (c)
(I) For lower density, the charge (Air + Fuel) at the end charge will be loss. Thus mass
fuel will also be less. Energy available will be less. Temperature of the end charge
will be less. Knocking is prevented.
(II) Detonation is caused due to PREIGNITION. (The other way normal).
107. Statement (I) : Knocking in Petrol engine is the auto-ignition of the rich mixture entering
the combustion chamber.
Statement (II) : Knocking is due to high compression ratio.
Ans. (b)
(I) For a riches mixture, the fuel supplied will be more. More energy will be liberated.
Temperature will be higher for the charge. Knocking is developed.
(II) For higher compression ratio, the temperature is higher. Knocking takes place (Thus
compression ratio is lesser for petrol engines. Between 6 and 10).
108. Statement (I) : Automotive Petrol engines require Petrol of Octane number between
85-95.
Statement (II) : Automotive Diesel engines require Diesel oil of Cetane number between
85-95.
Ans. (c)
(I) Higher octane no; better is the running of petrol engines (loss knocking)
(II) Max contane no, for diesel engines is around 55.
109. Statement (I) : In Automotive Petrol engines during idling operation a rich mixture is
required (F /A 0.08)
Statement (II) : Rich mixture is required because mixture is diluted by products of
combustion.

Ans. (a)
(I) For idling conditions slow speeds more energy is needed to run the engine. Hence,
rich mixture . Thus statement II is also correct.
110. Statement (I) : Piston temperature profiles near full load are flattened in case of liquid
cooled engines whereas for air cooled engines temperature profiles are steeper.
Statement (II) : The piston temperature profiles are different in nature for liquid cooled
and air cooled engines because of the different values of heat capacities.
Ans. (a)
(I) Higher the load, higher the temperature. Thus slope is less.
(II) More heat transfer takes places when cooling takes place by liquid. More change
in temperature.
111. Statement (I) : Effective temperature is an index which correlates the combined effect
of air temperature, air humidity and air movement upon human thermal comfort.
Statement (II) : Thermal comfort is not affected by mean radiant temperature.
Ans. (c)
112. Statement (I) : Commercial airplanes save fuel by flying at higher altitudes during long
trips.
Statement (II) : At higher altitudes, the ambient temperature and the Carnot efficiency
are low.
Ans. (c)
113. Statement (I) : In a venturimeter, the divergent section is much longer as compared
to the convergent section.
Statement (II) : Flow separation occurs only in the diverging section of the venturimeter.
Ans. (a)
A in diverging section, flow separation may occur due to adverse pressure graedient,
to avoid this it is kept much longer then converging section.
114. Statement (I) : In Fanno flow, heat transfer is neglected and friction is considered.
Statement (II) : In Rayleigh flow, heat transfer is considered and friction is neglected.
Ans. (b)

115. Statement (I) : In a choked flow in a convergent divergent nozzle, flow in the diverging
section is supersonic.
Statement (II) : In a choked flow in a convergent divergent nozzle, the Mach number
at the throat is larger than one.
Ans. (c)
116. Statement (I) : Non-dimensional performance curves are applicable to any pump in the
homologous series.
Statement (II) : Viscosity of water varies with temperature causing cavitations on suction
side.
Ans. (c)
117. Statement (I) : In subsonic flow in a diverging channel, it is possible that the flow may
separate.
Statement (II) : In subsonic flow in a diverging channel, there is adverse pressure
gradient in the channel.
Ans. (a)
118. Statement (I) : In a boundary layer formed by uniform flow past a flat plate, the pressure
gradient in the x direction is zero.
Statement (II) : In a boundary layer formed by uniform flow past a flat plate, the pressure
gradient in the y direction is negligible.
Ans. (b)
119. Statement (I) : Coolant and antifreeze refer to the same product.
Statement (II) : Gas engines do not require cooling.
Ans. (c)
(I) If coolant and anti freeze is added that is why it is consider as same product.
(II) Gas engine is basically heavy power IC engine and is required cooling system for
the dessipation of heat generation.
