Question
Two units four-stroke, 6-cylinder diesel engine is running at a speed of 1200 rpm is used to supply power to a free port zone. The fuel oil used has 26 ˚API with a temperature of 85 ˚F. Other engine data are as follows:
Generator efficiency = 95%
Overall thermal efficiency = 65%
Expansion ratio = 2.6
Cut-off ratio = 5
Volume at the end of combustion = 2.1 ft3
Mean effective pressure = 120 psi
For continuous operation, how many days a fuel storage tank size 30 feet long and 20 feet diameter be consumed if the tank is initially full?
