  2. Cessna 172 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cessna_172

    The model has a top speed of 131 kn (243 km/h) and burns 3 U.S. gallons (11 L; 2.5 imp gal) per hour less fuel than the standard 172. [38] As a result, the model has an 885 nmi (1,639 km) range, an increase of more than 38% over the standard 172. [39] This model is a development of the proposed and then canceled Skyhawk TD. [40]

  3. Thrust-specific fuel consumption - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thrust-specific_fuel...

    The fuel consumption per mile or per kilometre is a more appropriate comparison for aircraft that travel at very different speeds. [citation needed] There also exists power-specific fuel consumption, which equals the thrust-specific fuel consumption divided by speed. It can have units of pounds per hour per horsepower.

  4. Fuel economy in aircraft - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fuel_economy_in_aircraft

    In 2018, CO₂ emissions totalled 747 million tonnes for passenger transport, for 8.5 trillion revenue passenger kilometres (RPK), giving an average of 88 grams CO₂ per RPK; [2] this represents 28 g of fuel per kilometre, or a 3.5 L/100 km (67 mpg ‑US) fuel consumption per passenger, on average. The worst-performing flights are short trips ...

    Continental O-300 engine installation in a Cessna 172. The C-145 was developed from the 125 hp (93 kW) C-125 engine. Both powerplants share the same crankcase, although the C-145 produces an additional 20 hp (15 kW) through a longer piston stroke, higher compression ratio of 7.0:1 and different carburetor jetting.

  6. Brake-specific fuel consumption - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/.../Brake-specific_fuel_consumption

    It is the rate of fuel consumption divided by the power produced. In traditional units, it measures fuel consumption in pounds per hour divided by the brake horsepower, lb/(hp⋅h); in SI units, this corresponds to the inverse of the units of specific energy, kg/J = s 2 /m 2. It may also be thought of as power-specific fuel consumption, for ...

  7. Lycoming O-320 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lycoming_O-320

    The O-320 family of engines includes the carbureted O-320, the fuel-injected IO-320, the inverted mount, fuel-injected AIO-320 and the aerobatic, fuel-injected AEIO-320 series. The LIO-320 is a "left-handed" version with the crankshaft rotating in the opposite direction for use on twin-engined aircraft to eliminate the critical engine .
