STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Engine Specific Volume = Displaced volume/Brake power per cylinder per stroke
BSV = V_d/W⋅_b
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Engine Specific Volume - Engine specific volume is defined as the ratio of a cylinder's volume to its specific brake power.
Displaced volume - (Measured in Cubic Meter) - Displaced volume is defined as the volume covered by the piston during one complete stroke in IC engine.
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.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Displaced volume: 5.005 Cubic Meter --> 5.005 Cubic Meter No Conversion Required
Brake power per cylinder per stroke: 4000 Watt --> 4000 Watt No Conversion Required

What is specific volume?

Specific volume is a property of materials, defined as the number of cubic meters occupied by one kilogram of a particular substance. It is the ratio of a material's volume to its mass, which is the same as the reciprocal of its density. In other words, specific volume is inversely proportional to density.

How to Calculate Engine specific volume?
