An engine dynamometer measures torque (lb-ft), not mechanical energy (ft-lb); and an engineâs âtimeâ is expressed in revolutions per minute (rpm). Since 6.28 ft-lb of work is about equal to 1 lb-ft of torque, you can substitute the eqautions in Figure 2.
DEF weighs approximately 9 lbs per gallon. Compared to diesel fuel at approx 7.05 lbs and gasoline at an average of 6.19 lbs, DEF is a relatively heavy product.ow much DEF can I haul? With DEF weighing in at around 9lbs per gallon, we estimate that with a tandem axle truck tank you will be able to haul just over 3000 gallons in most states. For trailers the capacity will be around 5,000 gallons.
Water in motion directly impacts how the vehicle handles. One gallon of water weighs slightly more than eight pounds. So, tankers/tenders compliant with NFPA 1901 will carry approximately 8,340 pounds of water. With that much extra water weight-weight that is in motion-operating the apparatus is impacted.
