In conjunction with the test stand and the load unit, the engine is highly suitable for investigation of different compression ratios, ignition timing adjustment and an adjustable jet nozzle.
The engine used here is an air-cooled single-cylinder four-stroke petrol engine with external carburation. A modified cylinder head permits experiments with various combustion chamber inserts and compression ratios. To adjust the mixture composition, the carburetor was modified. Is fitted with a manual adjustment to adjust the ignition timing – from advanced to retarded.
The engine includes a sensor to measure the exhaust gas temperature. The sensor, ignition cut-off as well as air and fuel supply are connected to the test stand.
EXPERIMENTAL CAPABILITIES
In conjunction with test stand and load unit:
- Familiarization with a four-stroke petrol engine.
- Plotting of torque and power curves.
- Determination of specific fuel consumption.
- Determination of volumetric efficiency and lambda (fuel-air ratio).
SCOPE OF DELIVERY
- 1 engine, complete with all connections and supply lines.
- 1 manual.
