Important engine characteristicsp gFactors important to an engine user are:
1. The engine’s performance over its operating range range 2. The engine’s fuel consumption within this operating range and the cost of the required fueloperating range and the cost of the required fuel3. The engine’s noise and air pollutant emissions within this operating range4. The initial cost of the engine and its installation5. The reliability and durability of the engine, its maintenance requirements, and how these affect engine availability and operating costs
