An engine developes a brake power of 20.5kW and consumes 6.0litres of petrol during testing for 45minutes. Assuming the specific density and the calorific value of petrol used were 0.78 and 46MJ/kg respectively; determine the brake thermal efficiency and specific brake fuel consumption. Note: 1litre = 1 kg.​

Ahouse has the following electrical appliance usage (1) single 40w lamp used for 4 hours per day (2) single 60w fan used for 12 hours per day (3) single 200w refrigerator that runs 24 hours per day with compressor run 12 hours and off 12 hours find the solar power inverter size in watt with correction factor of 1.25.

Acompressor receives the shaft work to decrease the pressure of the fluid. a)- true b)- false
