LESSON 87 : Engine performance tests

Objectives

At the end of this lesson you shall be able to
• perform different tests in engine.

Purpose of testing an IC engine. Classification of test, fault finding tests, routine test

Introduction
We know about of engine, Engine is one of the most and crucial machine, it also powerhouse which develop and
provides motive power to propelled the vehicle for performing the various function of vehicle. I.C engine is work is
very quick or strong therefore, it’s effective is also strong. For strong and effective performance, we should follow
some different types of testing, this testing is best to identify and analysis for make a strong engine performance
as well as also surety of increase engine life too. Therefore, we should need to understand about different kind
of testing.

To find out performance before mass production and fitting it into a vehicle. Historically, the test basically was
to find out the power and fuel consumption, also test effectiveness of cooling, vibration and noise, lubrication,
controllability such like all things.
Engine test are classified in different way

First of all, ensure that about your engine like parameters, type engine if you sometimes you have doubt about
your engine please give proper suggestion before testing.
Precaution: The engine operates effectively, delivering expected power, output, and fuel efficiency while meeting
emission standard.
Here, discus about some common method used to test I.C engines. However, some specific testing procedures
may vary depending on the type and application of the engine.
