How the calculator treats it

High thermal capacity, but it also demands high actual system flow after hose, fittings and filter losses.

Capacity basis: Manufacturer publishes 10,050 BTU/h and 1,320-3,900 GPH flow range.

The engine applies a low-temperature/high-ambient capacity band rather than assuming the nameplate BTU remains exact under every condition. Internal chiller pressure drop is also represented as a range, so a hydraulic PASS is only strong when it survives that uncertainty.
