Try as you may but you can not make a Tier IV open loop Brayton Cycle diesel do better than 20-21 HP per gallon per hour at full power.And that is really stretching the limits. 16-18 HP per gallon per gallon per hour is more realistic.

The very best on can squeeze from diesel engine in a combined cycle application is around 50% efficiency. In applications as electrical power generation or ship propulsion.

Just not going to do better. The absolute max that can be extracted from a gallon of diesel over an hour is 25-26HP. That is it and all.
