Fuel Consumption Rate

Calculate daily fuel consumption based on engine load, speed and fuel type

Fuel

FC (MT/day) = SFOC × MCR × Load% × 24 ÷ 1,000,000

MCR (kW)Engine Load (%)SFOC (g/kWh)

Engine Power Output

Calculate shaft power, indicated power, and brake power from engine parameters

Power

BHP = (BMEP × L × A × N × n) ÷ 60,000 | P = 2π × n × T

BMEP (bar)Stroke (m)Bore (m)RPMCylinders

SFOC Calculator

Calculate specific fuel oil consumption to evaluate engine efficiency

Fuel

SFOC (g/kWh) = (Fuel Consumption × 1,000,000) ÷ (Power × Time)

Fuel Consumed (MT)Time Period (hrs)Shaft Power (kW)

Heat Exchanger Efficiency

Calculate thermal efficiency and heat transfer rate for marine heat exchangers

Thermal

η = (T_hot_in − T_hot_out) ÷ (T_hot_in − T_cold_in) × 100%

Hot Side In (°C)Hot Side Out (°C)Cold Side In (°C)Cold Side Out (°C)Flow Rate

Pump Flow Rate

Calculate pump flow rate, head, and power requirements for marine pumps

Pumps

Q = A × V | Power = ρ × g × Q × H ÷ η_pump

Pipe Diameter (mm)Flow Velocity (m/s)Head (m)Pump Efficiency (%)

Motor Current Calculator

Calculate motor running current, starting current and power factor for selection

Electrical

I = P ÷ (√3 × V × cos φ × η) for 3-phase AC motors

Motor Power (kW)Voltage (V)Power FactorEfficiency (%)

Compressed Air Calculation

Calculate compressed air bottle capacity, consumption and recharge times

Air Systems

Free Air = Bottle Volume × (P_storage − P_min) ÷ P_atm

Bottle Volume (litres)Storage Pressure (bar)Min Pressure (bar)Consumption (L/start)

Main Engine RPM to Speed

Convert main engine RPM to vessel speed using slip and propeller pitch

Propulsion

Speed (kn) = (RPM × Pitch × (1 − slip)) × 60 ÷ 1852

RPMPropeller Pitch (m)Apparent Slip (%)Wake Fraction

About Engineering Calculators

Marine engineering calculators for Chief Engineers, Second Engineers and watchkeeping engineers. These tools cover routine calculations for engine room operations, fuel management, and machinery maintenance. SFOC and fuel consumption figures should be calibrated against actual engine performance data from the vessel's sea trial results.
