RATE OF CLIMB AND DESCENT
−
OEI
Description:
These charts (ref. Figure 5-4 thru Figure 5-18) show the rate of climb
vs pressure altitude at maximum continuous OEI power at gross weights ranging
from 3500 to 6770 lb (1588 to 3071 kg) at the best rate of climb speed.
NOTE
:
These charts based on an electrical load of 30%, heater OFF, and
air-conditioning OFF.
Use of Chart:
The following example explains the correct use of the chart in
Use of Charts:
Use the chart as illustrated by the example below.
Example
:
Wanted: Rate of climb
Known: Pressure altitude = 4000 feet
Known: Outside air temperature = 0
°
C
Method: Enter the left side of chart (ref. Figure 5-4) at the known pressure
altitude of 4000 feet. Move to the right to the 0
°
C temperature curve
and then directly down to read rate of climb of approximately 1750
feet per minute (ft/min).
