Question

The difference between I.P. and B.P. is known as total engine friction loss.

(a) True

(b) False

I have been asked this question in an online quiz.

The question is from Total Engine Friction topic in section Engine Friction and Lubrication of IC Engine

Answer 1

The correct answer is:

(a) True

The difference between Indicated Power (I.P.) and Brake Power (B.P.) is known as the total engine friction loss. This loss includes all the frictional losses that occur within the engine, such as those from the piston, crankshaft, bearings, and other moving parts.
