Stickler Posted 4 hours ago Posted 4 hours ago According to the RL flight manual, when the compressor inlet temperature (T2) falls below +45°C, the maximum engine rpm is limited to prevent excessive mass airflow through the engine. The rpm maximum speed reduction starts at +45°C and is reduced until, at -54°C, the maximum rpm is approximately 90 percent. The engine also incorporates an exhaust gas temperature (T5) reset during military and full afterburner operation. This T5 reset occurs at the same point as T2 cutback, and reduces EGT at the same time that T2 cutback is reducing rpm. As can be seen in the attached track, even at a T2 of -40°C, maximum engine rpm remains 100% and I could find no evidence of T5 reset. I do not believe these effects are intended to be modelled (though I cannot be sure) so I'll leave this here as a low-priority feature to be implemented in the future. no_t2_cutback.trk
