Popis: This study involves the analysis of the performance improvement of the air-cooled SI engine by controlling the charge temperature. The insulated intake manifold has been used to maintaining the charge temperature at the atmospheric temperature level. The effect of variation in intake air temperature coming from atmospheric temperature on the engine performance in terms of brake mean effective pressure, engine power, engine torque are investigated. The result indicated that the mass flow rate of air is increased after using cold and insulated air intake system with average air density of 1.174 kg/m3. This improved air intake mass flow rate increased the brake torque and a reduction in exhaust gas emission. The result shows when the air-fuel mixture allowed for combustion at atmospheric intake air temperature (30ºC), the engine produces 1.2003 kW power and 5.7314 N-m torque at 2000 rpm. The engine performance calculated at an engine speed of 1000, 1500 and 2000 rpm.
