22. Important Terms in I.C. Engine (Contd.)
Stroke length and Bore
Displacement or Swept volume
Cubic capacity or Engine Capacity
Clearance volume
Compression ratio
28. General expression for Power
Power=(pmALN)/n
where pm= mean effective pressure, N/m2
L=length of stroke, m
A=Area of piston, m2
N=rotational speed of the engine rev/sec
n=number of revolutions required to complete one engine cycle
n=1 for two stroke engine
n=2 for four stroke engine
32. Engine Performance Parameters
Indicated Thermal Efficiency
Brake Thermal Efficiency
Mechanical Efficiency
Volumetric Efficiency
Relative efficiency or efficiency ratio
Mean effective pressure
Specific Fuel consumption
Air Fuel ratio
33. Indicated Power, Brake Power and Friction Power
Brake power (b.p.): Power developed by the engine at the output shaft.
b.p.=2 πNT
Where T is torque in Nm and N is rotational speed in rps.
T=Wr
Where W is the force at dymaometer in N and r is radius in m.
34. Indicated Power, Brake Power and Friction Power
Indicated Power (i.p.): Total power developed by combustion of fuel in
combustion chamber is, however, more than b.p.
Friction power (f.p.): Power consumed in overcomingfriction between moving
parts, inducting the air, exhausting the products of combustion, drive
auxiliary devices like water pump and lubricating oil pump etc.
b.p.=i.p-f.p.
38. Volumetric Efficiency
Ratio of the air actually inducted at ambient conditions to the swept volume of the
engine. Volumetric efficiency can be calculated considering mass or volume of air. It is
preferable to use mass basis.

39. Mean Effective Pressure
Hypothetical pressure which is thought to be acting on the piston throughout the
stroke that results in the same amount of indicated or brake work produced by the
engine.
Scales out effect of engine size. It is true indication of the relative performance
of different engines.
where pim=indicated mean effective pressure, N/m2
L=length of stroke, m
A=Area of piston, m2
N=rotational speed of the engine rev/sec
n=number of revolutions required to complete one engine cycle
n=1 for two stroke engine
n=2 for four stroke engine
