power, brake horse power, friction horse power to check engine performances
Individual Activity: Calculate the given solving problem
Assessment Criteria: 1. Students will be given 30 minutes to finish the task/s.
2. Show the solution in each given problem
Threshold: The group must get the score of 9 out of 12 (75%) in order to pass the activity.
The activity will be graded using RUBRICS below.

Direction: Solve the given problems using the given formula. Show your solution in the space provided.

1. Find Indicated Horse Power using the formula: IHP = PmLAN (kW)

60000 x 2

A four stroke diesel engine has an rpm of 720 and a mean effective pressure of 10 NM², the length of stroke is
180mm and has a cross sectional area of the bore is 100mm². What is the indicated horse power?

2. Find power output using the formula: P = (n x ( π / 4 ) x D2 x L) x p x N

We have an 8-cylinder four-stroke diesel engine at 2000 RPM, with a bore of 115mm, a stroke of 135mm and
a BMEP of 10 bar. What is the power output of the engine in mechanical horsepower?
3. Find the engine displacement using the formula: D = [ (π x (B/2)2 x S ) x C ] x 0.000001Our engine has 8
cylinders, a bore of 100mm and a stroke of 78mm. What is its displacement?
