In conjunction with the test stand, which includes a drive and brake unit, the four-stroke petrol 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 the frictional power of the engine
Plotting of torque and power curves
Determination of volumetric efficiency and lambda (fuel-air ratio)
Determination of specific fuel consumption.
Many parts have been chromium-plated and galvanized for a longer life. Two cylinder Petrol Engine Cutaway model is carefully sectioned for training purposes, professionally painted with different colours to better differentiate the various parts, cross-sections, lubricating circuits, fuel system, cooling system etc.
