jim_supra Posted September 22, 2005 Share Posted September 22, 2005 wonder what the mpg's on that would be! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Homer Posted September 22, 2005 Share Posted September 22, 2005 From the trusty Google: ****** The Wartsila-Sulzer RTA96-C turbocharged two-stroke diesel engine is the most powerful and most efficient prime-mover in the world today. The cylinder bore is just under 38" and the stroke is just over 98". Each cylinder displaces 111,143 cubic inches (1820 liters) and produces 7780 horsepower. Total displacement comes out to 1,556,002 cubic inches (25,480 liters) for the fourteen cylinder version. Some facts on the 14 cylinder version: Total engine weight: 2300 tons (The crankshaft alone weighs 300 tons.) Length: 89 feet Height: 44 feet Maximum power: 108,920 hp at 102 rpm Maximum torque: 5,608,312 lb/ft at 102rpm Even at it's most efficient power setting, the big 14 consumes 1,660 gallons of heavy fuel oil per hour. ******* 25000 litre engine = However at a max speed of 15 mph, it consumes 0.011 mpg Ouch!
