IC ENGINE LABORATORY
Lab-in-charge: Dr. Kirti Tewari
Course Objective:
Internal Combustion Engine Laboratory is well-equipped laboratory which provides
ideas on practice of handling IC engines. In this Laboratory, cut-sections models of
different engines along with VTD plotting are presented to the students. Performance
measurement test on single cylinder diesel, petrol engines, multi-cylinder engines are
also being performed in this Laboratory.
Along with these above-mentioned test facilities, one multi fuel VCR engine with open
ECU is there in this Laboratory for carrying out research activities. Performance,
combustion testing can be conducted with available instruments using different
alternative fuels. This Laboratory is also well equipped with Multi-gas Analyser to check
the emission characteristics of the engine.
Course Outcome
After the completion of this course, the student should be able to:
- Understand the practical operation of 2 stroke and 4 stroke I.C engines using valve
timing diagram
- Analyse the performance of multi cylinder engines with the variation of various
performances like load and speed.
- Conduct tests and determine the properties of fuels and oils.
- Conduct performance tests on IC engines and draw characteristics plots
