Engine Brake Mean Effective Pressure Formula

Engine Brake Mean Effective Pressure (\(BMEP\)):

\[ BMEP = \frac{75 \cdot 50 \cdot BHP}{L \cdot A \cdot N \cdot n} \]

Where:

  • \(BMEP\) is the brake mean effective pressure, kg/cm².
  • \(BHP\) is the brake horsepower, hp.
  • \(L\) is the piston stroke, m.
  • \(A\) is the piston area, cm².
  • \(N\) is the number of power strokes per minute.
  • \(n\) is the number of cylinders.
