Consider the impact of compression of the air-fuel mixture on turbulence. Assume that an idealized turbulent eddy is represented by a gas disc 3 mm in diameter, d, and 0.5 mm thick, l, at atmospheric pressure and temperature. The disck is spinning around its axis at 1000 rpm. What is the rotational speed of the disk after it is adiabatically compressed to 25 atm pressure? The gas disc is compressed equally in both the radial and axial direction; that is d₁ / d₂ = l₁ / l₂. Discuss the results in terms of turbulence in engines.

During the power stroke of an internal combustion engine, the air-fuel mixture is ignited and the expanding hot gases push on the piston. Fuel efficiency is maximized in this process when the ignited gas is as hot as possible, the gas expands allowing a maximum amount of work to be done, and cooled exhaust gas is released at the end of the cycle. Assuming the engine exhibits the highest efficiency possible, which of the following statements concerning the exhaust gas...

An air–fuel mixture enters a constant area combustion chamber at a velocity of 100 m/s a pressure of 70 kPa and a temperature of 150°C. Assuming that the fuel–air ratio is 0.04, the heating value of the fuel is 30 MJ/kg, and the mixture has the properties of air, calculate the Mach number in the gas flow after combustion is completed and the change of stagnation temperature and stagnation pressure across the combustion chamber. Neglect the effects of viscosity and...
