NiYo Engineers’ two-cylinder four 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 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
• Morse Test
• P-Theta and P-V diagram
• Heat release rate
