    1. An experiment was conducted to measure the torque and power output of a vertical single cylinder engine at varying speeds from 400-1200 rpm with a 6.5 kg load. 2. Key results include the torque measured at half load was 17.826 Nm, the fractional power was 2.828 kW, and the mechanical efficiency at half load and 800-1000 rpm was 45.92%. 3. The mechanical efficiency decreases with decreasing speed due to the decreasing fractional power, as the assumption it is independent of speed is not accurate.
