B.
High heat value of oil
C.
Net calorific value of oil
D.
Calorific value of fuel

Answer: Option A

Solution

Answer: Option A
Solution:
All heat engines utilize Low heat value of oil. In thermodynamics and engineering, a heat engine is a system that converts heat or thermal energy—and chemical energy—to mechanical energy, which can then be used to do mechanical work. It does this by bringing a working substance from a higher state temperature to a lower state temperature.
