The following data relate to a two-cylinder double-acting compound steam engine running at 100 r.p.m. H.P. cylinder: Diameter = 250 mm, cut-off = 30% of stroke, D.F. = 0.8, clearance = 10% of stroke. L.P. cylinder: Diameter = 500 mm, cut-off = 40% of stroke, clearance = 8% of stroke, D.F. = 0.7.
The admission and exhaust pressures are 6 bar and 0.30 bar, respectively. The common stroke of the engine is 400 mm.
Determine the power output of the engine.
