The SDK doesn’t explain what effect cowl flaps are having on the cooling
equation for CHT. Can anyone from Asobo please elaborate on this? Ideally we
would have a similar engine.cfg line to oil_coolant_flaps_effect so that we
can adjust how effective cowl flaps are for a particular aircraft, as not all
aircraft are equal in this regard.
Hello @MV-JimStewart In the case of air cooled engines, the CHTCooling factor
described in the doc is computed as: CHTCooling = true_airspeed_fps *
density_ratio / temperature_ratio + cowl_flaps_pos * 80 ratios being the
quotient of current density/temperature and sea level density/temperature
cowl_flaps_pos being in the [0;1] range I’ll forward the request of being able
to configure their influence. @Nocturne FYI Regards, Sylvain
