The basic task in the design and development of I. C. Engines is to
reduce the cost of production and improve the efficiency and power
output. In order to achieve the above task, the engineer has to
compare the engine developed by him with other engines in terms of
its output and efficiency. Hence he has to test the engine and make
measurements of relevant parameters that reflect the performance of
the engine. In general the nature and number of tests to be carried
out depend on a large number of factors. In this book only
laboratory testing of I.C. Engines and the interpretation of
performance results are described.

Colocasia is primarily grown for its starch riched edible corms and
cormels. Leaves and petioles are also used as vegetable while the
starch has industrial uses. It is grown as staples or subsistence
crop throughout the tropics and subtropics. Corms and cormels are
generally consumed after boiling or frying. In North East India,
farmers use different parts of colocasia as pig feed. It is one of
the vegetables which are most extensively consumed by the rural
people. Hundreds of cultivars are available in different parts of
the region. Wide variation in stature and growing habit exist among
the cultivars. Therefore, an experiment was designed to study the
variation and correlation in growth and yield parameters and the
interrelationship between different characters of 20 selected
germplasm of colocasia. The results obtained and the conclusions
derived from this investigation are incorporated in this book.
