Question Paper

1. Choose the correct answer from the given four alternatives.

In a low speed S.I. engine, the inlet-valve closes approximately

40° after BDC

30° before BDC

10° after BDC

10° before BDC

The function of a fuel injector is to

pump the fuel at high pressure

mix diesel with air

atomize the fuel

ignite the fuel

For the same value of compression ratio and heat input, the order of thermal efficiency of Otto, Diesel and Dual cycles will be as under:

A heat engine receives 1120 kJ of heat and rejects 840 kJ of heat while operating between two temperature limits of 560 K and 280 K It indicates that the engine operates on the following cycle

Reversible cycle

Irreversible cycle

Impossible cycle

Unpredictable cycle

The thermal efficiency of an ideal Otto cycle

increases with compression ratio

increases with specific heat ratio

increases with compression ratio and specific heat ratio

increases with compression ratio but decreases with specific heat ratio

In C.I. engines, ignition delay can be reduced by

decreasing compression ratio

increase in air inlet temperature

decrease in coolant temperature

decreasing the engine speed

A machine produces 100 kJ work by consuming 100 kJ heat. This machine will be called

PMM-I

PMM-II

PMM-III

None of the above

Explain the function of a carburettor in a petrol engine with a neat sketch.

Explain the phenomenon of knock in C.I. engines and compare it with S.I. engine knock.

State the purpose of lubrication in I.C. engines.

Discuss briefly the following methods of cooling of I.C. engines:
