Fig. 7.46 Effect <strong>of</strong> airhead on specific fuel consumption.<br />

overall air flow rate with the throttle valve in the airhead inlet either fully closed, or at onehalf<br />

open, or fully open. The bmep is virtually unchanged in all three cases, although some<br />

extra air flow, leading to a minor torque increase, is visible at the highest engine speed <strong>of</strong><br />

5000 rpm. In Figs. 7.46 <strong>and</strong> 7.47, there is a noticeable improvement in bsfc <strong>and</strong> bsHC at<br />

engine speeds <strong>of</strong> 2000 rpm <strong>and</strong> above. The reduction in hydrocarbon emissions ranges from<br />

55% at 2500 rpm to 20% at 5000 rpm. The reduction in brake specific fuel consumption<br />

ranges from 20% at 2500 rpm to 5% at 5000 rpm.<br />
