Q. The ratio of break power to the Indicated power of an IC engine is ?

A
Indicated thermal efficiency
B
Relative efficiency
C
Break thermal efficiency
D
Mechanical efficiency
Solution:
  • Mechanical efficiency, is the parameter that gives the effectiveness of an engine in transforming it’s input energy to output energy.
  • For an internal combustion engine, it is the ratio between the brake work and indicated work.
  • Mechanical efficiency is defined as the ratio of brake power (delivered power) to the indicated power (power provided to the piston).
