What is specific fuel consumption and how fuel calculate?..

Answer / Gaurav

Specific Fuel Consumption (SFC) refers to the amount of fuel consumed per unit of work output, often measured in grams per kWh or pounds per brake horsepower-hour. In marine engineering, SFC can be calculated by dividing the fuel oil consumption rate by the engine's power output.nFor example: SFC = (Fuel Oil Consumption Rate) / (Engine Power Output)
