Engine Power Generation

The overall efficiency of power generating systems may be defined as:
output power P
Efficiency (%) = × 100 η = 0 × 100
input power Pi
2πNT
Output Power Po = hp
33000

where
T = output torque in ft-lbs
N = engine rotary speed in revolution per minute
Qf H
Input Power Pi = hp
2545
where
Qf = rate of fuel consumption in lb/hr
H = fuel heating value in BTU/lb

Supplementary Example 1:
Engine Speed 1500 rpm
Engine Torque 1800 ft-lbf
Fuel Consumption 30 gal/hr
Calculate
1. output power of the engine
2. Input power
3. overall efficiency of the engine
