Tech/Engineering - Aerospace / Aviation / Space / motor | | English term or phrase: lean-find | Of course, you can see derailed information on the performance of your engine with the analyzers built into the integrated glass cockpit systems that show cylinder head temps and EGTs for each cylinder. Most have some sort of automatic lean-find that annunciates the first cylinder to reach peak EGT. And there are several engine analyzer systems that do the same thing and can be installed in any existing airplane.
I THINK THE BEST FEATURE OF THE advanced engine instruments is to spot trends more than to note absolute values. Before long you will see a distinctive pattern of temperatures that is normal, so it becomes easy to spot a change. Cylinder temps and EGT-changes can signal a problem with fuel delivery or ignition system function. Its unlikely that you will see useful early warning of a catastrophic engine failure such as a connecting rod or crankshaft breaking, but the engine analyzers can help you spot more minor problems. That troubleshooting can save time, and thus money, when you get to die shop. |
