My 2007 Volvo uses .5-.6 gph at idle (600 rpm), if I set it for a hi idle (900 rpm) it uses 1-1.1 gph.
4.7 liter per/hour
On an average load on a 15 kc DG is about 4 littered of diesel per hour.
10 litres
It could take an estimated 1/2 gallon to 1 gallon idling for a hour.
The amount of diesel used in a diesel-powered generator depends on several factors including the generator's power output, fuel efficiency, and the duration of operation. Diesel generators typically have a fuel consumption rate measured in liters per hour (L/h) or gallons per hour (gal/h).To determine the specific amount of diesel used, you would need to know the generator's fuel consumption rate. This information can usually be found in the generator's specifications or user manual. For example, a small diesel generator with a 5-liter/hour fuel consumption rate would use 5 liters of diesel per hour of operation.
Effectively all the fuel that it burns while idling. You are getting 0 miles per gallon while idling.
Diesel fuel weighs 1 gallon
that depends on size of engine
well the diesel get alittle bit more mpg but not much but the diesel burns cleaner the regular fuel
Ten liters of diesel fuel will weigh 8320 grams. One liter of diesel fuel weighs 832 grams. Ten liters of diesel fuel weighs about 18 pounds.
Diesel fuel is the kind of fuel used by diesel engines. Its a combustible fuel refined from crude oil - just as is gasoline - but diesel has a much higher flash point than gasoline. Its grade is measured in cetane rather than octane
To know how much fuel a 250KVA diesel generator uses per hour, referring to the operator's manual is all that is needed. It states that properly maintained diesel generators of this size average a fuel consumption of 21 gallons per hour.
