Generator output at time of upload 2023 08 18
Cylinder size: 1x1
Cylinder count: 5
Low noise: 14.75 power/second ~404 power/litre (of diesel fuel) @ Throttle 0.55 Stio 0.2
Boosted: 42 p/s ~370 p/l @ Throttle 0.92 Stio 0.2
Boosted limited to cooling capacity.
Concept: Shaped for a small horizontal footprint reaching up to cross a roof for air, exhaust and cooling.

ECU:
= BBW Safe ECU for 1 modular engine
= includes various safety features beyond temperature.

GCU:
= Generator control unit
= When to auto start the generator, when to turn it off and 2 throttle levels

There is a toggle as a boost.
If you wire the toggle to just the GCU you can use a higher throttle/rpm with the same Stio/AFR
If you wire the toggle also to the ECU you can have it change to a higher Stio/AFR

Testing rig includes numerous displays used to determine generator performance and debug the ECU+GCU.

Testing also includes various motors to generators to simulate load for a more chewable presentation of rating generator performance. It seems that the number of motors in the sim is bit higher than what can be sustained in play but its a small margin.
