Willian's line method, we plot graph between MSFC and torque (brake power), it gives friction power.

So answer B is correct and it's mostly appropriate for CI engine instead of SI engine because at low-pressure pumping losses are occurs.

Option B is the correct answer.

The answer is BRAKE POWER.

Willians line relationship is fuel consumption Vs brake power.

Niladri said:   7 years ago
I think B is correct.

What will be the answer?

Between bp & sfc.

Or between ip & sfc?

Kajal said:   8 years ago
It is bw bp & steam consumption per hour.
Straight line relationship.
Line extended to negative axis shows frictional power.

Willian's line is between BP and fuel consumption for IC engine. If it is between ip and steam consumption. Please explain clearly

This is applicable mainly to CI engine.

Willian's line is graph between ip and bsfc, and it gives the value of frictional losses in the engine.
