The curve show in the given figure is characteristic of diesel engines What does Y-axis represent ? Correct Answer Total fuel consumption

Explanation:

Willan’s line method:

  • This method is also known as fuel rate extrapolation method.
  • A graph connecting gross fuel consumption on Y-axis and brake power on X-axis at constant speed is drawn and it is extrapolated on the negative axis of brake power.
  • The intercept of the negative axis is taken as the friction power of the engine at that speed.
