ME3-48 (Power Plant Design): Home Work # 4 (Midterm Period) Date. ENGR. JOSE R. FRANCISCO, PME - INSTRUCTOR INSTRUCTION: Solve the following problems, correctly and systematically, and show all the necessary figures. Note: ‘© Submit your solution, in pdf file, together with this Questionnaire (with your complete name) on or before October 19, 2022 not later than 7:29 pm to Engr. Jose Francisco's email add: puawka@yahoo,.com Prob. # 1] A supercharged 6-cylinder four-stroke cycle Diesel engine of 10.48 cm bore ans 12.7 cm stroke has a compression ratio of 15. When it is tested on a dynamometer with a ‘53.34 cm arm at 2500 rpm, the scale reads 81.65 kg, 2.86 kg of fuel of 48 822.20 kitkg heating value are burned during a 6 min. test, and air metered to the cylinders at the rate of 0.182 kg/s. Find the brake thermal efficiency. (20 points) Prob. # 2] A certain diesel engine with the following specifications: 8-cylinder, 800 mm x 600 mm, 4-stroke cycle has a fuel consumption of 0.6 Ibnp-hr based on 19 100 Btu/lb. Engine speed is 280 rpm with an indicated MEP of 130 psi. If the jacket water carries away an estimated 25 % of the heat supplied, find the capacity of the pump required if the allowable tise is 40 °F. (20 points) Prob. #3] A305 mm x 457 mm four-stroke, single-acting Diesel engine is rated at 150 kW at 260 rpm. Fuel consumption at rated load is 0.26 kg/kW-hr with a heating value of 43 912 kilkg. Calculate: a) the brake mean effective pressure, in kPa; b) the engine displacement, in t'/min-Hp; c) the brake thermal efficiency. (20 points) Prob. # 4] A 800-bHp Diesel engine with 6 cylinders has a brake thermal efficiency of 32 % and a jacket water loss of 30 %. It uses a closed cooling system with a cooling tower 10 meters high. The temperature rise after passing the water jacket is 15 °C and the cooling tower range is 6 °C. Calculate: a) Capacity of jacket water pump in gpm; b) exhaust loss in Btu/hrif friction, radiation and other losses total 8 %; c) cooling water flow rate in the cooling tower in liters per hour; and d) standard size of electric motor to drive the raw-water pump if the total dynamic head is 35 m and the pump efficiency is 88 %. (20 points) Prob. # 5] A 4-stroke 394 mm bore and 534 mm stroke single-acting Diesel engine with four cylinders is guaranteed to deliver 350 bHp at 300 rpm. The engine consumed 66.8 kg/hr of fuel with a heating value of 44215 ki/kg. Calculate: a) the brake thermal efficiency, b) the brake mean effective pressure; c) the indicated mean effective pressure if mechanical efficiency is 89 %.
