Introduction
Small and medium power internal combustion engines (rated power not exceeding 560kW) are widely used in road vehicles, ships, agricultural tractors, forestry machinery, and industrial machinery.
It provides power for various supporting machinery, such as engineering machinery, generator sets, and irrigation and drainage machinery.
GB/T 1147 "Small and Medium Power Internal Combustion Engines" is a general technical standard for small and medium power internal combustion engines, aiming to provide a framework for their development.
GB/T 1147 provides a basis for development, production, inspection, trade (delivery) and technical exchange. It consists of two parts.
---Part 1: General Technical Specifications. The purpose is to establish general requirements for small-power internal combustion engines for different applications.
---Part 2: Test Methods. The aim is to establish test methods for small and medium power internal combustion engines, including general performance test methods and specific test methods.
Special performance testing methods.
