dear all,

in a diesel generator how is the units getting calculated, i have this doubt because the rpm doesnt change and also fuel consumption also getting varied ,

but still the units are getting calculated and its getting varied , in need to knw it plz help me out

Most units are calculated with pencil and paper. However some of the clever mathematics programs like Mathematica and Mathcad do properly handle unit calculation.

Which units do you mean? The rpm and voltage should remain nearly constant, while the amps could vary widely with the load. The fuel consumption would relate most closely to the amps, and thus could also vary quite a bit.
