A cement truck with four-stroke diesel engine has 7 cylinders. The bore and stroke of each cylinder are 698 mm and 2,054 mm, respectively. The brake mean effective pressure of each cylinder is 1.38 MPa and the engine rotates at 117 rpm. The brake thermal efficiency of the engine is 37 %, the mechanical efficiency is 83 % and the net calorific value of the diesel is 31.1 MJ/kg. Determine the brake power in mega... to 3 decimal places. Insert unit symbol.
