Michael Zoche Antriebstechnik - Keferstrasse 13 - 80802 Munich - Germany Tel. (+49 89) 32369600 - Fax (+49 89) 32369601 The Diesel engine has demonstrated the lowest specific fuel consumption of any prime mover (as low as .26 lb/hp hr for very large 2-stroke marine Diesels). It uses fuel which is much cheaper and still contains more energy per gallon than gasoline or avgas. Decades ago there were several Diesel aircraft engines (built by Guiberson, Packard, Rolls-Royce, Clerget, Fiat and others). In the 1930´s the Junkers "Jumo 205" supercharged 2-stroke Diesel was used in scheduled transatlantic service between Europe and South America; it had a cruise BSFC of .356 lb/hp hr and a specific weight of only 1.5 lb/hp. "Jumo" Diesel engines delivered full sealevel power up to 40,000 feet and powered aircraft flying at 50,000 feet.
