Indicated Power (IP) On Multicylinder Petrol Engine By Morse Test

1.     Brake Power, BP = WN/ C KW

Where,W = Load on the Dynamometer Kg,

N = rpm of the Engine,

C = Dynamometer Constant.

2.     Indicated Power ( IP ) of each Cylinders:

IP1 = ( BPT BP2,3,4) KW

IP2 = ( BPT BP1,3,4) KW

IP3 = ( BPT BP1,2,4) KW

IP4 = ( BPT BP1,2,3) KW

3.     Total IP of the Engine, IPT = ( IP1 + IP2 + IP3 + IP4 ) KW

4.    Mechanical Efficiency, ηmechanical = BPT / IPT
