FAQs on Fuel Consumption per Cylinder

What is the formula to find Fuel Consumption per Cylinder?
The formula of Fuel Consumption per Cylinder is expressed as Fuel Consumption per Cylinder = Fuel Consumption per Hour/Number of Orifices. Here is an example- 0.001157 = 0.0025/6.
How to calculate Fuel Consumption per Cylinder?
With Fuel Consumption per Hour (FCh) & Number of Orifices (no) we can find Fuel Consumption per Cylinder using the formula - Fuel Consumption per Cylinder = Fuel Consumption per Hour/Number of Orifices.
Can the Fuel Consumption per Cylinder be negative?
No, the Fuel Consumption per Cylinder, measured in Mass Flow Rate cannot be negative.
Which unit is used to measure Fuel Consumption per Cylinder?
Fuel Consumption per Cylinder is usually measured using the Kilogram per Second[kg/s] for Mass Flow Rate. Gram per Second[kg/s], Gram per Hour[kg/s], Milligram per Minute[kg/s] are the few other units in which Fuel Consumption per Cylinder can be measured.
