"Attached is a common ships 2 stroke diesel engine.
The bore is 96cm and the stroke is between 2.1 metres or 2.8 metres,
depending on the model and application. This is the first 12 cylinder.
Now they make 14 cylinder version. Also in 6 and 9 cylinder versions.
A small engineering calculation puts each short stroke version,
cylinder capacity at 3.142 x (96/2)2 x 210 = 1520225.2 cc.
Or just over 1,520 Litres per cylinder.
So you see. 2 strokes still do rule !!"
