AFC = ( Engines x 361030000 x Power ) / ( SFC x LHV x Density x Timesteps)
AFC = ( Engines x 361030 x Power ) / ( SFC x LHV x Timesteps)
AFC = ( Engines x 100 x Power ) / ( SFC x Timesteps)
Warning : not enough fuel available to run one of
the engine sets at the required capacity
max = Power x 100 / PL
