How much will old oil increase fuel consumption?
It will not increase fuel consumption.
How do you calculate specific fuel consumption in a plant?
at first we have to know what is specific fuel consumption. From definition we know that- "The amount of fuel required per unit production".
What is thrust specific fuel consumption of turbo shaft?
There is no such thing as thrust specific fuel consumption of a turboshaft engine, as a turboshaft is designed to deliver mechanical power, not thrust. This mechanical power can be converted into electric power by a generator or converted into thrust by a propeller or rotor. Basically, a turboshaft uses jet technology but is an alternative to a piston engine. While thrust specific fuel consumption doesn't exist for a turboshaft, "brake specific fuel consumption" does. It measures the rate of flow of fuel required for a certain amount of power. For example, a specific fuel consumption of 0.2 lbs/h/hp means that for every horsepower the turboshaft produces, it burns 0.2 lbs of fuel each hour.
How do you calculate lubricating oil consumption for a diesel engine?
The consumption of lubricating oil for a diesel engine depends on the operating conditions and the design of the engine. There are some averages depending on the year of the engine. Pre 1980's engine are around 25% of fuel consumption. Pre 1990 engines are around 20% of fuel consumption and more recently built diesel engines are around 1% of fuel consumption.
How many calories in 1 liter Diesel oil?
There are not any calories in diesel fuel oil. Diesel fuel oil should not be consumed by humans or animals. Consumption of the fuel oil can be fatal.
Cause of high fuel consumption on a efi?
High fuel consumption on an EFI could be caused by a bad O2 sensor. Another reason for high fuel consumption is a dirty air filter or oil filter that needs to be changed. Electronic Fuel Injection vehicles are also famous for clogged fuel injectors.
What is a sentence for the term biomass?
The use of biomass for fuel can reduce the consumption of oil and coal.
What causes a engine to burn rich?
too much fuel, excessive oil consumption
Specific heat in 1 btu of fuel oil?
Specific heat of fuel oil in btu: 1)minimum-0.4 2)maximum-0.5
What do you mean by specific fuel consumpion?
Specific fuel consumption is an exact measure of how many pounds (or other measure of weight or volume) is used to produce each horsepower an engine produces. For example, if you have a diesel engine running at a certain speed that produces 10 HP while burning 4.5 lbs of fuel per hour, its specific fuel consumption is .45 lbs/HP.
Lube oil consumption of diesel engine?
Lube oil consumption depends on engine design and motor operating conditions. Dieselnet is a good source. Typical oil consumption values for pre-1980s engines were 0.46 g/kWh (0.34 g/bhp-hr; 0.25% of fuel consumption), pre-1990 engines ranged between 0.33-0.48 g/kWh (~0.15 - 0.20% of fuel consumption). A test on a number of 2002 heavy-duty and medium-duty engines in the US yielded an average of 0.22 g/kWh (0.1% of fuel consumption). Year 2007 heavy- and medium-duty engines consume on average 0.08 g/kWh (around 0.03% of fuel consumption)
How do you calculate the Specific Fuel Oil consumption on a ship?
SFOC = Mass of fuel burnt to produce a unit power in 1 hour. SFOC = Mass of fuel / kW in 1 hour Density = Mass / Volume Mass of fuel = Density X Volume SFOC = Mass of fuel / kW power in 1 hour You get the value is Kg, But to specify in Grams you have to multiply the answer by 1000. Let us calculate SFOC with given values, For a ship X, the daily fuel oil consumption is 75 Tonnes. Power in kW = 11520 BHP power = 15,448 To calculate SFOC in g/ kWhr, Total fuel consumption / day = 75 tonnes Fuel consumption / Hour = 75/24 = 3.125 Tonnes = 3125 Litres Specific Gravity of fuel used = 0.9375 (Usually given in BDN- Bunker delivery note) SFOC = 3125 X 0.9375 /11520 SFOC = 0.2543(Litres) X 1000 (To get it in Grams/kwhr) SFOC = 254.3 g/kWhr
