Testing of a Low Specific Fuel Consumption Turbocompound Engine
SAE Technical Paper Series, 1987<div class="htmlview paragraph">Refinements to reduce the operating costs of heavy-duty diesel engines have resulted in new production engines with specific fuel consumption (sfc) below 200 g/kW-hr. Turbocompounding the heavy-duty diesel engine results in further reductions in sfc.

Specific Data Model of Smart Fuel Consumption Cost Estimator
2009 International Conference on Computer Technology and Development, 2009This paper focus on the database design for Smart Fuel Consumption Cost Estimator (SFCCE). SFCCE is automated software that calculates the total amount of fuel cost for a car to travel based on the distance given, driving speed, weight capacity and current market fuel price cost.

The Design of a Low Specific Fuel Consumption Turbocompound Engine
SAE Technical Paper Series, 1986<div class="htmlview paragraph">Continued emphasis has been placed on reducing the specific fuel consumption (sfc) of heavy-duty diesel engines. Through design improvements, engines with sfc levels of 200 g/kW-hr are now reaching the consumer. With the addition of turbocompounding, sfc can be reduced below 185 g/kW-hr.

IEEE Transactions on Intelligent Transportation Systems, 2012
Energy management is integral to the design of fuel-cell (FC) hybrid vehicles (FCHVs), as well as topology and component sizing. Therefore, an optimal energy management strategy is crucial for a successful FCHV concept. The goal in this optimization process is to coordinate the energy sources and power components on a vehicle in such a way that the ...

Turbofan Specific Fuel Consumption, Size and Mass from Correlated Engine Parameters
2021Purpose – Simple equations and more extended models are developed to determine characteristic engine parameters: Specific fuel consumption (SFC), engine mass, and engine size characterized by engine length and diameter. SFC (c) is considered a linear function of speed: c = c_a * V + c_b. --- Methodology – Data from 718 engines is collected from various

Hybrid-Electric Rotorcraft Sizing with Detailed Engine Specific Fuel Consumption
Journal of AircraftData from a 4.5 hp piston engine generator is integrated with rotorcraft sizing to assess its impact. First, the specific fuel consumption (SFC) map of the powerplant is measured and modeled. Second, a sizing loop is developed for vertical take-off and landing (VTOL) aircraft and calibrated with XV-15 flight test aircraft and a NASA conceptual ...
