What is the full form of BMEP?
Answer :
- Brake Mean Effective Pressure
What does BMEP mean?
BMEP is a very effective way of comparing the performance of a given type to another of the same type.
BMEP is the average pressure imposed uniformly from the top to the bottom of each power stroke on the pistons, which would produce the measured output of the brake power.
If you know the torque and displacement of an engine, BMEF is calculated by below formula:
BMEP = 150.8 x TORQUE / DISPLACEMENT
(FOR 4-Stroke Engine)
BMEP = 75.4 x TORQUE / DISPLACEMENT
(FOR 2-Stroke Engine)
BMEP in psi
TORQUE in lb-ft
DISPLACEMENT in ci
If you prefer pressure readings in Bar instead of PSI, simply divide PSI by 14.5)
