V24 engine
A V24 engine is a 24-cylinder piston engine where two banks of twelve cylinders are arranged in a V-shaped configuration around a single crankshaft. The majority of V24 engines, however, have been "dual V12" engines where two separate V12 engines are placed in line with each other.
Fiat AS.6 aircraft engine
Script error: No such module "Labelled list hatnote". This V24 aero engine was built in the early 1930s to power the Macchi M.C.72 aeroplane, which was intended to compete in the 1931 Schneider Trophy air races. This engine was in reality formed by mounting two Fiat AS.5 V12 engines one behind the other, with the front engine powering the rear propeller and the rear engine powering the front propeller.[1] The combined displacement was more than Template:Convert and the combined power output was approximately Template:Convert.[2]
Mechanical problems prevented the airplane from competing in the Schneider Trophy, however the Macchi M.C.72 achieved an average top speed of Template:Convert on 23 October 1934. This set the record for a piston-powered seaplane, a record which stands to this day.[3]
Detroit Diesel 24V71
The Detroit Diesel Series 71 24V71 engine with a displacement of 1,704 cu in (27.9 L) and 2,000 hp. They were manufactured from 1994 to 1997.
Jenbacher J624
One of the few, if not the only, V24 engines in current production is the Austrian-made Jenbacher J624 gas engine for electric power generation and CHP applications. The engine makes use of two-stage turbocharging, and with a bore and stroke of 190mm by 220mm, the total swept volume of the 24-cylinder engine is 149.7L. Depending on application, the engine can operate on various fuels with the genset generating up to 4,507 kW of electrical power.Script error: No such module "Unsubst".
