The Caterpillar 3208 is a turbocharged 10.4-liter v8 eight-cylinder diesel engine manufactured by Caterpillar and first introduced in 1975. The Caterpillar 3208 was discontinued in 1999 due to its low fuel efficiency and lack of compliance with internal combustion exhaust emission laws which were due to come into force.
The Caterpillar C32 is a V12 diesel engine made by Caterpillar Inc. The engine displacement is 32.1 liters (1959 cubic inches). The cylinder size is 5.71 inches x 6.38 inches bore/stroke.
Consumption map of a 1.5-litre three-cylinder diesel engine. A consumption map or efficiency map [1] is a chart that displays the brake-specific fuel consumption of an internal combustion engine at a given rotational speed and mean effective pressure, in grams per kilowatt-hour (g/kWh).
Caterpillar Inc., also known as Cat, is an American construction, mining and other engineering equipment manufacturer. [6] The company is the world's largest manufacturer of construction equipment. [ 3 ] [ 7 ] [ 8 ] In 2018, Caterpillar was ranked number 73 on the Fortune 500 list [ 9 ] and number 265 on the Global Fortune 500 list. [ 10 ]
Energy consumption (reciprocal efficiency) [3] is expressed terms of fuel consumption: [2] volume of fuel (or total energy) consumed per unit distance per vehicle; e.g. l/100 km or MJ/100 km. volume of fuel (or total energy) consumed per unit distance per passenger; e.g., l/(100 passenger·km). volume of fuel (or total energy) consumed per unit ...
Specific fuel consumption may refer to: Brake-specific fuel consumption, fuel efficiency within a shaft engine;
The following table takes values as an example for the specific fuel consumption of several types of engines. For specific engines values can and often do differ from the table values shown below. Energy efficiency is based on a lower heating value of 42.7 MJ/kg (84.3 g/(kW⋅h)) for diesel fuel and jet fuel, 43.9 MJ/kg (82 g/(kW⋅h)) for ...
