II.THEORETICAL CALCULATIONS
PERFORMANCE
A. Calculations:
Friction Power (FP): The link between the brake
power output and indicated power output of an engine
is its friction. Friction has a dominating effect on the
performance of an engine. Almost invariably, the
frictional losses are ultimately dissipated to cooling
system (and exhaust) as they appear in the form of
frictional heat and this influences the cooling capacity
required. Moreover lower friction means availability
of more brake power, Hence brake specific fuel
consumption is lower. This fuel economy is important
because it decides the speed at which an engine can be
run economically. Thus the level of friction decides
the maximum output of the engine which can be

Indicated Specific Fuel Consumption (ISFC):
Indicated Specific fuel consumption (ISFC) or
sometimes simply Indicated specific fuel consumption,
ISFC, is an engineering term that is used to describe
the fuel efficiency of an engine design with respect to
thrust output. Indicated Specific Fuel Consumption
may also be thought of as fuel consumption
(grams/second) per unit of thrust (kilo newtons, or
KN).
It is obtained by using the formulae.
ISFC = M

Brake Thermal Efficiency (BTE): Brake Thermal
Efficiency is defined as brake power of a heat engine
as a function of the thermal input from the fuel. It is
used to evaluate how well an engine converts the heat
from a fuel to mechanical energy.

Exhaust gas temperatures were found to be increasing with the increase in load and the compression
ratio. The highest exhaust gas temperature was recorded for the compression ratio 19.0 while the least was
for 16.5.

Indicative Mean Effective Pressures were found to be increasing with the increase in load and the
compression ratio. The highest Indicative Mean Effective Pressures was recorded for the compression ratio
19.0 while the least was for 16.5.
6. CONCLUSIONS
Following conclusions can be drawn from the
experimentations carried out on the C.I engine with
diesel at various compression ratios. The optimum
compression ratio is 19 as operation for the given
engine. Better fuel economy is obtained at the
compression ratio 19.Fuel consumption is higher at
compression ratio 16.5.Smoke density is less at
compression ratio 19.0.Exhaust gas temperatures are
moderate at compression ratio 16.5. For more power
at high loads the engine should operate at compression
ratio 19 due to less specific fuel consumption. For
lower power output at light loads the engine should
operate at compression ratio 16.5 due to less fuel
consumption.
