1916 (Andrews & Morgan‚ 1987). His P.B.31.E prototype “Nighthawk”‚ was a quadruplane designed to hunt German airships at night during WW1. For that purpose‚ it was equipped with a nose-mounted searchlight powered by a 5 horsepower‚ 2stroke gasoline piston engine‚ courtesy of the All British Engine Company (ABC) (Andrews & Morgan‚ 1987). Although the Nighthawk never entered service‚ it has achieved historical significance as the first ever example of an APU equipped aircraft. Fig 1: Early ABC APU (ABC

any assumptions used in solving. Box all final answers. PROBLEM NO.1 In the crank piston system shown‚ a piston P is connected to a crank AB (b 16 cm.) by a 2 kg slender rod B ( l 40 cm.). The mass of the crank AB can be considered to be very small. During a test of the system‚ crank AB is made to rotate with a constant angular velocity of 60 rad/s clockwise. There is no force applied to the face of the piston. When 60the distance between points D and A ‚ d‚ is 43.081 cm and the angle

Governing factors in HCCI operations such as injector characteristics‚ injection pressure‚ piston bowl geometry‚ compression ratio‚ intake charge temperature‚ exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) and supercharging or turbocharging are discussed in this review. The effects of design and operating parameters on HCCI diesel emissions‚ particularly NOx
