Performance measurement of petrol engines

This thesis describes the various methods for measuring the performance parameters of petrol engines and on the selected engine (car) evaluate their accuracy with regard to the economic complexity of the methods. In the first part of this thesis is described construction of combustion engines, explained the importance of individual performance parameters (power, torque, specific fuel consumpti-on) and characteristics combustion engines. This section, however, is focused on the issue of performance measurement, using both static and dynamic methods of measurement. The second part examined the various methods of measurement in practice on selected engine (car) with an assessment of their advantages and disadvantages and the financial cost of the-ir implementation
