Mechanical Engineering

A vehicle which is equipped with a 6 cylinder, 2000 cc sparkignition engine is cruising at an average speed of 150 km/h fromAnkara to Istanbul on the highway. The mass of the vehicle withsingle driver is 1200 kg and its projected frontal area is 3 m2.The coefficient of rolling resistance is 0.015 and the dischargecoefficient is 0.3. The distance between Istanbul and Ankara isapproximately 450 km. Assuming an average brake specific fuelconsumption of 250 g/hp-h, calculate how many liters of fuel willbe used during this journey ( r fuel = 0.73 g/cc and ambient airdensity r a=1.2 kg/m3).
