A six-liter, eight-cylinder, four-stroke cycle SI race car engine operates at 6000 RPM using stoichiometric nitromethane as fuel. Combustion efficiency is 99%, and the fuel input rate is 0.198 kg/sec.
Calculate:
(a) Volumetric efficiency of the engine. [%]
(b) Flow rate of air into the engine. [kg/sec]
(c) Heat generated in each cylinder per cycle. [kJ]
(d) How much chemical energy there is in unburned fuel in the exhaust. [kW]
