Brake specific power Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Brake specific power = Brake power per cylinder per stroke/Area of Piston
B_sp = W⋅_b/A_p
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Brake specific power - (Measured in Watt) - Brake specific power is defined as the power used to do work on the piston per cylinder per cycle.
Brake power per cylinder per stroke - (Measured in Watt) - Brake power per cylinder per stroke is defined as the partial brake power utilized to move the piston during any stroke considering single cylinder.
Area of Piston - (Measured in Square Meter) - Area of piston is the value of area of the piston in a piston pump.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Brake power per cylinder per stroke: 4000 Watt --> 4000 Watt No Conversion Required
Area of Piston: 0.05 Square Meter --> 0.05 Square Meter No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

B_sp = W⋅_b/A_p --> 4000/0.05

Evaluating ... ...

B_sp = 80000

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

80000 Watt --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

80000 Watt <-- Brake specific power
