In a typical medium speed, 4-stroke cycle diesel engine ___________________?
  • (A)  fuelinjection starts at 10° before to dead center and ends at 20° after tor dead center
  • (B)  fuel injection starts at top dead center and ends at 20° after top dead center
  • (C)  fuel injection starts at just before top dead center and ends just after top deac center
  • (D)  may start and end anywhere
  • (E)  none of the above
For the same compression ratio_____________________?
  • (A)  Otto cycle is more efficient than the Diesel
  • (B)  Diesel cycle is more efficient’than Otto
  • (C)  both Otto and Diesel cycles are, equally efficient
  • (D)  compression ratio has nothing to do with efficiency
  • (E)  which is more efficient would depend on engine capacity
Flash point of fuel oil is __________________?
  • (A)  minimum temperature to which1 oil is heated in order to give off inflammable vapours in sufficient quantity to ignite momentarily when brought in contact with a flame
  • (B)  temperature at which it solidifies or congeals
  • (C)  temperature at which it catches fire without external aid
  • (D)  indicated by 90% distillation temperature, i.e. when 90% of sample oil has distilled off
  • (E)  none of the above
