Therefore the temperatures are consistent with 70 kW output. And even if it were 479 kW, surely it's not too big a stretch to imagine 10 or 20 kW coming from stored heat or chemical reactions in 107 ecats. > > 2) Take a look at the exhaust cap.

Do you have a photo of the same model genset running full bore? The hinge may only open to 80 degrees. (A peripheral point, to be sure, because nuclear reactions are not needed to explain the observations even if the genset had been shut down.
