A 302-in3. displacement, V8, four-stroke cycle SI engine mounted on a hydraulic dynamometer has an output of 72 hp at 4050 RPM. Water absorbs the energy output of the engine as it flows through the dynamometer at a rate of 30 gallons per minute. The dynamometer has an efficiency of 93% and the water enters at a temperature of 46°F.
Calculate:
(a) Exit temperature of the water. [°F]
(b) Torque output of the engine at this condition. [lbf-ft]
(c) What is the bmep at this condition? [psia]
