  1. A turbocharged four-stroke direct injection diesel engine has a displacement volume of 0.0259 m3 (25.9 liters). The engine has an output of 950 kW at 2200 rpm. The mean effective pressure (in MPa) is closest to
    1. 2
    2. 1
    3. 0.2
    4. 0.1
Correct Option: A

B.P =
n.pmVN.k
60

where p m = mean effective pressure
n = number of cylinders = 1.
V = volume of displacement = 0.02510 cm3
N = r.p.m
k =
1
for 4-stroke
2

= 1 for 2-stroke
∴ pm =
B.P × 60
n.V.N.k

=
950 × 60
for 4-stroke
0.0259 × 2200 × (1 / 2)

= 2000 kPa = 219 Pa
