Niyo engineers’ single cylinder two stroke petrol engine test rig is designed for students study the performance of petrol engines. The ic engine and dynamometer are mounted on a rigid frame structure. The coupling is secured and has a safety cover. Instrumentation is provided to measure various parameters like, temperature, fuel consumption, air flow rate measurement, load, engine speed, etc. Testing can be carried out at various loads.

A water cooled calorimeter is supplied to measure and prepare heat balance sheet.

There is a facility to plot p-theta and p-v diagram.

Topics covered are,

• To determine brake power
• To determine engine volumetric efficiency
• To determine engine brake thermal efficiency
• To determine engine specific fuel consumption
• Complete energy balance using exhaust gas calorimeter.
• Determining air-fuel ratios
• P-theta and p-v diagram
• Heat release rate
