Heat is usually the big one. How you get rid of it is critical, of course.
Dave Driskoll (DH) can probably tell us all more about this. One of the
things that is really cool about the DeltaHawk engines is that they are
designed to be run continuously at max (pretty sure about this.....Dave, are
you there?). That's a lot of full-time horses.

Hi Pete,

What factors dictate the difference between max and continuous rated
power? The main one I can think of is the ability to remove waste
heat. And of course a diesel produces less waste heat per unit HP
than a spark ignition engine.
