what's a BUREP ?

http://www.hexatronengineering.com/60hp_champ.htm
uses the Burep as a measure of engine power.
What the heck is a Burep?

PS I recently saw this Hexadyne P60 engine
at the Salon de l'ULM in Blois, France.
Looks neat, but is not cheap.
Are any flying yet?

Its not actually a measure of power. Its directly proportional to
HorsePower per RPM per Displacement.

If you calculate HP/RPM/Displ for each case and multiply by 13,000,000
you will get their "Bureps". Seems like an engine comparison factor.

OK. Here is some more info. HorsePower per RPM per Displacement is
equal to torque per displacement. Its a yardstick of engine overall
performance. On another website -

- they call it BMEPs.
