The following pictures are amazing engineering feats that can make your jaw literally fall off,
Enjoy!
World's largest diesel engine (World's largest container vessel engine).
Wartsila Sulzer RTA96-C/ Engine.
The cylinder bore is just under 38" and the stroke is just over 98". Each cylinder displaces 111,143 cubic inches (1820 liters) and produces 7780 horsepower. Total displacement comes out to 1,556,002 cubic inches (25,480 liters) for the fourteen cylinder version.Some facts on the 14 cylinder version:
Total engine weight-2300 tons (The crankshaft alone weighs 300 tons.).
Length89 feet.
Height-44 feet.
Maximum power108,920 hp at 102 rpm.
Maximum torque5,608,312 lb/ft at 102rpm.
