In conjunction with the test stand, which includes a drive and brake unit, the four-stroke diesel engine is highly suitable for use in teaching the fundamentals of engine functioning and measurement. It is part of a series of devices enabling experiments to be performed on engines and machines.
Learning Objectives/Experiments:
Determination of volumetric efficiency and lambda
Determination of the frictional power of the engine
Plotting of torque and power curves
Determination of specific fuel consumption.
