Q

How does temperature affect power output?

A

An increase in intake temperature = an expansion of air particles. This will reduce power output because the mass flow through the engine will be reduced due to reduced air density.

Q

How does altitude affect power output

A

At a constant TAS, power output falls with increase in altitude due to the decrease in air density. This is mitigated however by a decrease in air temp = increased air density

Q

What are the two reasons aircraft should be flown at a speed slightly more than Vimd

A
  • The variation of TAS/power at speeds near VIMD is negligible and a slightly higher speed will allow a faster flight without undue loss of range.
  • When flying at VIMD, any turbulence or manoeuvres will cause a loss of lift and height. which can only be regained by the application of more power and consequent fuel wastage.

Q

Describe the conflict when flying for endurance between flying for airframe and flying for engine efficiency

A
  • Airframe demands least power at minimum power speed,
    plus about 10 kt for control, at as low an altitude as possible = minimum fuel flow.
  • Flying for engine efficiency: engines are most efficient at MCrpm,at a high altitude (cold temperature) and a high TAS (around 300 kt).

Q

Why do we set 300KTAS as a general rule of thumb?

A
  • As this is a ballpark number that is the closest to LRC for most given weights and altitudes.
  • Usually works out a bit faster than our actual LRC, with little to no effect on fuel consumption.

Q

If our TAS is 290, and we are struggling to get to 300KTAS, are we underperforming?

A
  • No, LRC is generally around 285-295KTAS, so we are actually more efficient at this speed than we would be at 300KTAS. Use book to find “top of curve” if rqd
  • Only if time is an issue would you necessarily need to look at speeding up.

Considerations when climbing above F300:

  • OXY: above FL300, all crew must have access to quick don oxy masks (Must have <10 POB as only 10 regulators are available)

Q

What is IGE?

A

In ground effect, where the AC is flown half a wingspan (66ft) above the runway, reduction of induced drag, as well as air compression between the wing and the ground at low level allows acceleration to climb speed.

54
Q

Why is VMCA IGE a lower speed than OGE?

A

Flying just above the runway causes compression of air between the wings and the ground, providing a higher level of controllability, therefore reducing VMCA compared to OGE
