5.7 -- ENGINE OPERATION
The following tables must be used during normal operation of the airplane.
The following conditions are given :
-- Np = 2000 RPM,
-- BLEED LO.
The torque must be set at or below the value corresponding to the local
conditions of flight level and temperature.
Example :
for FL = 260 and OAT = -- 30
°
C, the following tables give the
maximum torque to be set.
Maximum climb power :
TRQ = 84 % for IAS = 130 KIAS
(Add 1 % of TRQ for each additional
15 KIAS on climb airspeed)
(cf. tables Figures 5.7.1A and 5.7.1B)
Maximum cruise power :
TRQ = 98 %
(cf. tables Figures 5.7.2A and 5.7.2B)
Recommended cruise power : TRQ = 92 %
(cf. tables Figures 5.7.3A and 5.7.3B)
CAUTION
THE TRQ SETTING MUST NEVER EXCEED 100 % FOR
NP = 2000 RPM
REMARK :
The engine ITT limit at 800
°
C during continuous operation may be used in
case of operational need. However, in order to ensure a good engine aging,
an ITT limit at 785
°
C is recommended during continuous operation (climb
and cruise).
