Subject: Prime Movers &Pumps, Time: 90 Min.
Answer ALL the questions & ALL questions carry equal marks. (1M+4M)

1. [a] Draw the P-V diagram for Otto cycle.

[b]. Explain in brief the working principle of four stroke diesel engine with neat sketch. CO3&4
(OR)
[a] Describe the classification of IC Engines
[b] write the comparison between two stroke and four stroke engines

2 [b] List the methods that used in reducing the speed of the turbine rotor CO5&6
[b].Steam with absolute velocity of 300 m/sec is supplied through a single stage impulse
turbine the nozzle angle is 250 the mean diameter of blade rotor is 1 m and it has a speed of
2000 rpm find suitable blade angles, for zero axial thrust with velocity coefficient 0.9 and
steam flow rate is 10 kg/sec calculate power developed
(OR)
[a] Draw the P-V and T-S diagrams for closed cycle gas turbine
[b] Air enters the compressor of a gas turbine plant operating on Brayton cycle at 1 bar and
270C.The pressure ratio in the cycle is 6. Calculate maximum temperature in the cycle and the
cycle efficiency assume the turbine work as 2.5 times the compressor work .take ɤ=1.4
(OR)
3 [a] what are the main parts of centrifugal pump CO7&8
[b] A centrifugal pump having outer diameter equal to two times the inner diameter and
running at 1000 rpm works against a total head of 40m .The velocity of flow through the
impeller is constant and equal to 2.5m/s. The vanes are set back at an angle of 40 0 at outlet. If
the outlet diameter of the impeller is 500mm and width at outlet is50mm,determine (1)vane
angle at inlet (2) work done by impeller on water per second (3) manomatric efficiency
(OR)
[a] Define slip and negative slip
[b] Explain the working principal of Reciprocating pump with help of neat sketch
