4. Inadequate scavenging leads to high mean indicated pressure which results in high weight and high cost per kW for the engine.
a) True
b) False
View Answer

Answer: b
Explanation: In fact, inadequate scavenging leads to low mean indicated pressure which results in high weight and high cost per kW for the engine.

a) True
b) False
View Answer

Answer: a
Explanation: None.

6. Inadequate scavenging leads to contamination of lubricating oil to a greater extent which reduces the lubricating qualities and eventually results in increased wear of piston and cylinder liners.
a) True
b) False
View Answer

Answer: a
Explanation: None.

7. Scavenging angle is the crank angle during which both inlet and exhaust port are open.

8. Scavenging period is the time period taken for crank angle.
a) True
b) False
View Answer

Answer: b
Explanation: In fact, scavenging period is the time period taken for scavenging angle.
