The 12 cylinder 2 stroke cycle compression ignition engine of an oil tanker is operating at 150 rpm The brake mean effective pressure of the engine is 400 kPa and the excess air coefficient is 2. The crankshaft of the engine is directly coupled to a propeller and a torque of 1500 kN-m is applied. The engine operates on light fuel oil which can be approximated as C12H26. If the brake specific fuel consumption is 200 g/hp-h what is the volumetric efficiency of the engine ?
