To solve this problem, we need to use the formula for brake power (BP) in a four-stroke engine:
\[
BP = \frac{2 \pi N P_m A L}{60}
\]
Where:
- BP = Brake Power in kW
- N = Engine speed in rpm
- P_m = Mean effective pressure (in bar)
- A = Area of the piston in square meters
- L = Stroke length in meters
Given:
- BP = 14.7 \, \text{kW}
- N = 1000 \, \text{rpm}
- P_m = 5.5 \, \text{bar} = 5.5 \times 10^5 \, \text{Pa} (since 1 bar = 10^5 \, \text{Pa} )
- L = 1.5 \times \text{Bore} = 1.5b
The area of the piston A is:
\[
A = \pi \left(\frac{b}{2}\right)^2 = \frac{\pi b^2}{4}
\]
Now substitute this expression into the brake power formula:
\[
14.7 = \frac{2 \pi \times 1000 \times 5.5 \times 10^5 \times \frac{\pi b^2}{4} \times 1.5b}{60}
\]
Simplify the equation:
\[
14.7 = \frac{2 \pi^2 \times 1000 \times 5.5 \times 10^5 \times 1.5b^3}{240}
\]
Now, solving for b^3 :
\[
14.7 = \frac{2 \pi^2 \times 1000 \times 5.5 \times 10^5 \times 1.5b^3}{240}
\]
\[
b^3 = \frac{14.7 \times 240}{2 \pi^2 \times 1000 \times 5.5 \times 10^5 \times 1.5}
\]
Now calculating the value of b :
\[
b^3 \approx 0.0014
\]
Taking the cube root of the result:
\[
b \approx 0.114 \, \text{m} = 114 \, \text{mm}
\]
Now, calculate the stroke length L :
\[
L = 1.5b = 1.5 \times 114 = 171 \, \text{mm}
\]
Thus, the bore is approximately 114 mm and the stroke is approximately 171 mm. However, these values don't exactly match the given options. Let me recheck my calculations and the options:
