QUOTE Why not run LOP, which also slows the flame front, and makes the engine run cooler and cleaner, with lower internal component stresses at any given power setting? Good reading |

QUOTE(anthony @ Jul 6 2004, 06:54 PM) Can we get a glossary? :-) LOP ROP TBO MP OAT JPI Lean Of Peak (EGT) Rich Of Peak Time Between Overhaul Manifold Pressure Outside Air Temperature JPI - a sophisticated engine guage. i'm not familiar with the JPI, but there's a very nice unit called the 'GEM' (Graphic Engine Monitor) that shows both CHT and EGT data per cylinder on a bargraph display. makes it very easy to tune based on load, temperature, and fuel flow. (load - via variable pitch propellor - kind of like a continuously variable transmission in a car - and fuel flow - via the mixture knob - are easily adjustable in operation by controls for this purpose) |
