IBHP=PixRPMxCyl constand

BHP=Pe x RPM x Cyl constant


Cyl constand for B&W6LMC60=1.2455
Cyl constant= (D2 x 3.14) : 4 x piston stroke : 4500 -for B&W6LMC60=1.2455
Pi=Area/diagram length/spring scale
Area =surface of diagram measured by planimetar : diagram lengh in mm : scale of spring
for example diagram area 350mm2 Diagram length 75mm spring scale 0.3mm

Pi=350/75/0.3=15,556

Pe=Pi-1 Pe=15.556-1=14.556

1=loses from Engine frictions.

RPM for example 111.6

IBHP=15.556x111.6x1.2455=2162.19

BHP=14.556x111.6x1.2455=2023.25
