1) A four-stroke diesel engine has a piston diameter of 16.5 cm and a stroke of 27 cm. The compression ratio is 14.3, the cut-off 4.23% of the stroke and the mean effective pressure 4.12 bar. The engine speed is 264 rev/min and the fuel consumption is 1.076 kg of oil per hour, having a calorific value of 39150 kJ/kg. Calculate the relative efficiency of the engine 2). A diesel engine has a brake thermal efficiency of 30%. If the calorific value of fuel used in 10000 kcal kg, calculate the brake specific fuel consumption
