Henri ..depends on your biomass and on your sterling Stirling's efficiency, divide your output by your efficiency to get your input, e.g.: arnt@celsius:~/FG-git$ qalc 100hp/25% to kW (100 * horsepower) / (25 * procent) = approx. 298.27999 kW arnt@celsius:~/FG-git$ qalc 100hp/25% to MJ/s (100 * horsepower) / (25 * procent) = approx. 0.29827999(MJ / s) arnt@celsius:~/FG-git$ qalc 100hp/25% to kWh/s (100 * horsepower) / (25 * procent) = approx. 0.082855554((kW*h) / s) ..burn wood? arnt@celsius:~/FG-git$ qalc 100hp/\(25%*4.5kWh/kg\) (100 * horsepower) / ((25 * procent * (4.5 * kilowatt * hour)) / kilogram) = approx. 18.412345(g / s) arnt@celsius:~/FG-git$ qalc 100hp/\(25%*4.5kWh/kg\) to kg/h (100 * horsepower) / ((25 * procent * (4.5 * kilowatt * hour)) / kilogram) = approx. 66.284443(kg / h) arnt@celsius:~/FG-git$ ..is "@ 1800 rpm" relevant? Only if it impacts your efficiency. ;o) -- ..med vennlig hilsen = with Kind Regards from Arnt Karlsen ...with a number of polar bear hunters in his ancestry... Scenarios always come in sets of three: best case, worst case, and just in case. _______________________________________________ Gasification mailing list to Send a Message to the list, use the email address [email protected] to UNSUBSCRIBE or Change your List Settings use the web page http://lists.bioenergylists.org/mailman/listinfo/gasification_lists.bioenergylists.org for more Gasifiers, News and Information see our web site: http://gasifiers.bioenergylists.org/
