Internal Combustion Engine Questions and Answers Part-7

1. In Dual cycle, heat addition takes place ____________
a) at Constant volume
b) first at constant volume then at constant pressure
c) constant pressure
d) none of the mentioned

Answer: b
Explanation: Since, Dual Cycle is a combination of Otto cycle and Diesel cycle, so in Dual cycle, generally heat addition takes place first at constant volume then at constant pressure.

2. In Dual cycle, heat rejection takes place ___________
a) at constant volume
b) first at constant volume then at constant pressure
c) constant pressure
d) none of the mentioned

Answer: a
Explanation: Since, Dual Cycle is a combination of Otto cycle and Diesel cycle, so in Dual cycle, generally heat rejection takes place at constant volume.

3. Most high speed compression engines operate on __________
a) Otto cycle
b) Diesel Cycle
c) Dual cycle
d) Carnot cycle

Answer: c
Explanation: Dual cycle

4. In a standard dual air cycle, for a fixed amount of heat supplied and a fixed value of compression ratio, the mean effective pressure ____________
a) shall increase with increase in rp and decreases in rc
b) shall increase with decrease in rp and increases in rc
c) shall remain independent of rp
d) shall remain independent of rc

Answer: a
Explanation: shall increase with increase in rp and decreases in rc

5. The volumetric efficiency of a well designed engine may be _____________
a) 30 to 40%
b) 40 to 60%
c) 60 to 70%
d) 75 to 90%

Answer: d
Explanation: 75 to 90%

6. The air fuel ratio of the petrol engine is controlled by _________
a) fuel pump
b) governor
c) injector
d) carburettor

Answer: d
Explanation: The air fuel ratio of the petrol engine is controlled by carburettor and not by injector or fuel pump.

7. Fuel consumption of diesel engines is not guaranteed at one quarter load because at such low loads ___________
a) the friction is high
b) the friction is unpredictable
c) the small difference in cooling water temperature or in internal friction has a disproportionate effect
d) the engine is rarely operated

Answer: c
Explanation: the small difference in cooling water temperature or in internal friction has a disproportionate effect
