I am not sure about the relation with calorific value here, because even though calorific value of petrol is higher than diesel it's just by 4MJ/kg. And when we compare petrol and diesel engines of same capacity, diesel engines have longer strokes and hence bigger diameter crankshaft. This results in a diesel engine actually producing more torque than a petrol engine of same capacity.
Hence, as stated above, I feel it's just the relation between Torque, speed and power which results in a petrol engine generating more power than a diesel engine.

The efficiency of the propeller is 88% at 32 knots ( 1 knot = 1085 km/hr). If the slenderness ratio is less than 50 and the permissible shear stress should not exceed 65 Mpa. Determine the diameter of shaft. 3 A semi-elliptic leaf spring consists of two extra full-length leaves and six graduated length leaves, including the master leaf. Each leaf is 7.2 mm thick and 65 mm wide. The centre-to-centre distance between the two eyes is 1.3m. The leaves are pre-stressed in such a way that when the load is maximum, stress induced in all leaves are equal to 380 N/mm sq. Determine the maximum force that the spring can withstand
