Fuel consumption data missing

[alexvolkov]

Hi,

I'm working on online heat balance calculation tool and particularly on ORC cycles for waste heat recovery. We are ready to add the library of high-power IC engines but we can't find fuel consumption data in published OEM specifications.
Who can advice?

Thanks

What kinds of engines are you looking at? Most commercial/industrial engines will have this info published.

I was surprised when I did not found this data in MAN and CAT brochures. I'm interesting in all high-power engines where WHR has sense.

For Cat engines that data is not typically in the brochures, but in the engine performance data sheets. You would typically need to talk to a dealer for the performance data sheets. I gather that you're not planning to buy any engines, so your request might not be a high priority at the dealership.
