I would like to estimate brake specific fuel consumption sweetspot for my engine at partial load (say +50% based on MAP readings). I do have a chassis dyno curve which i thought some one could use here to help estimate BSFC from. Basically this is a 16 valve boxer 4 cylinder over...
I've derrived Volumetric Efficiency values for a production engine's publicised WOT BSFC figures. This is because Porsche tend to release this data in their owners manuals, where as very few other manufacturers do, and I was doing work on the Porsche V8 engine. It's very very difficult to...
The BSFC reached a staggering 725 at 1400 rpm and 100% load. The best fuel, if the aim is to reduce emissions, is that for which the amounts of NOx, CO2, PM emissions and the value of EGT reach their lowest values. In fact, the amount of CO production becomes very little when B5...
If we use a conservative estimate of 0.48 for the BSFC of the old 45° V-twin, then the power the engine produces to cruise at 70 is 18.5 HP (8.9 pph / 0.48 = 18.5 ).The outside diameter of the rear wheel of his bike is about 26 inches, so at 70 MPH, the rear wheel is ...
