| Summary: | This research provides an overview of the performance on the effect of the different
exhaust length for motorcycle engine. The research also covers the effect in terms of
emissions. The engine used was a motorcycle 125cc 4-stroke gasoline engine. There
are two method was used; experiment and simulation. For experiment, load applied
to the engine with different lengths of exhaust pipe. The engine speed of this study
was controlled in the range of 800 – 1000 rpm. The test engine has been attached to
the dynamometer. The engine specifications and measured components of exhaust
system were used for modelling and visualization using GT-Power simulation
software. The different length of exhaust will be used for the simulation. Brake
power, brake mean effective pressure (BMEP) and brake specific fuel consumption
(BSFC) of the engine are discussed as the performance of the engine. Besides that
carbon dioxide (CO2), carbon monoxide and hydrocarbon (HC) was discussed as the
emissions of the engine. The performance test was conducted to investigate the
different lengths of exhaust manifold will affect the engine performance and
exhaust-out emissions |
