A gasoline engine working on four-stroke develops a brake power of 20.9 kW. A Morse Test was conducted on this engine and the brake power (kW) obtained when each cylinder was made inoperative by short circuiting the spark plug are 14.9, 14.3, 14.8 and 14.5 respectively. The test was conducted at constant speed. Find the indicated power, mechanical efficiency and bmep when all the cylinders are firing. The bore of the engine is 75 mm and the stroke is 90 mm. The engine is running at 3000 rpm.
