Effect of gearing ratio on fuel consumption?

Gear ratios will let the engine run at the speed and load at which it is most efficient, which is good for low fuel consumption and an exhaust that is as clean as possible.


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)

Does load affects fuel consumption per hour of a diesel generator?

If the generator is to maintain the same rpm and power output, then a heavier load will increase the diesel consumption. The revolutions per minute the generator runs will increase as the load increases, thereby resulting in an increase in diesel consumption to maintain the high rpm. A Generator has a governor which attempts to maintain frequency at 60 Hz for North America. For the generator to increase the power output at the same frequency, the governor will increase the fuel and air to the engine. The fuel consumption will not be linear because of the curves associated with the particular engine. The fuel to KWH is know as the heat rate curve for the generator.


How do you calculate fuel consumption per hour of 250 kva diesel generator?

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.

Calculating Your Consumption?

Using a fuel consumption calculator is a great way to test the efficiency of your car and to find out how much money you might be wasting on the rising price of gas. If you use a fuel consumption calculator and find that you are spending too much money on gas, then you may want to either look into getting some maintenance done to your vehicle or start looking into buying a more fuel efficient automobile.


Using a Fuel Consumption Calculator?

Before you commit to buying a particular car, be sure to use a fuel consumption calculator. This type of calculator will help you determine how many miles you will be able to drive before you need to fill the tank with gas. For someone who is looking to save money, an eco-friendly car is a great way to ensure that you save a lot of money and save the environment as well.


What is the fuel consumption vs speed formula for determining the relationship between the amount of fuel consumed and the speed at which a vehicle is traveling?

The fuel consumption vs speed formula is typically represented as a linear equation, where fuel consumption (FC) is directly proportional to speed (S). This relationship can be expressed as FC a bS, where 'a' is the base fuel consumption rate and 'b' is the rate of change in fuel consumption per unit increase in speed. This formula helps determine how fuel consumption varies with different speeds of a vehicle.


How do you calculate heat load for thermic fluid heter fuel to heat load?

It is easy to calculate Heat load if you know fuel Consumption in Heater. e.g -- If you are using Furnace Oil as Fuel and u are consuming 1000 Kg per day Then Heat Load per day will be = Calorific Value of FO x Fuel Consumption

How to calculate CO2 emissions from fuel consumption?

To calculate CO2 emissions from fuel consumption, you can use the following formula: CO2 emissions (in metric tons) fuel consumption (in liters) x emission factor (in kg CO2 per liter). The emission factor varies depending on the type of fuel being used. You can find specific emission factors for different fuels from sources like the Environmental Protection Agency or the International Energy Agency.
