Thermodynamic Tests for I.C. Engines

Thermodynamic Tests for I.C. Engines

Why thermodynamic tests are done on IC Engines? An internal combustion engine (IC Engine) is put to thermodynamic tests, so as to determine the following quantities:

  • Indicated mean effective pressure
  • Indicated power of an IC Engine
  • Brake power of IC Engine
  • Efficiency of an IC Engine
