Calculate the load on an vehicle Engine

Click For Summary
To design a special engine, it's crucial to start by determining the engine's capacity (cc) and required output power. The stroke length and diameter should be designed based on the chosen capacity. Calculating the force on the piston involves assuming an overall efficiency and determining the maximum pressure in the combustion chamber. Creating a PV diagram based on initial and maximum pressure and volume will aid in visualizing the engine's performance. This foundational understanding will help overcome initial design challenges.

Dear Friends,

Hi Everyone. I am Planning to Design a Special Engine. I got with an Idea but got Struck on Starting the Design. I do think many has the Same Problem "Starting Trouble". Could someone tell me where to Start the Engine Design? Please...

Show us what you have and where you got stuck. We need a lot more information.

I got Stuck from the very Beginning. I don't know how to Calculate the load on an vehicle Engine.

Hey Jana . I had a engine design project in my senior year. Decide the capacity of the engine (cc) and the required output power. Design the stroke length and diameter based on the cc. Assuming a certain overall efficiency, calculate the force required on the piston (ie, the maximum pressure in the combustion chamber). Based on the initial and maximum P and V, draw the PV diagram. That should hopefully give you an idea :-)

Thread 'UV filter for home central heating?'

Had my central air system checked when it sortta wasn't working. I guess I hadn't replaced the filter. Guy suggested I might want to get a UV filter accessory. He said it would "kill bugs and particulates". I know UV can kill the former, not sure how he thinks it's gonna murder the latter. Now I'm finding out there's more than one type of UV filter: one for the air flow and one for the coil. He was suggesting we might get one for the air flow, but now we'll have to change the bulb...
