reece0306 Posted March 24, 2021 Share Posted March 24, 2021 Is there any way to convert the fuel flow scalar to be more like fuel flow in kilograms or pounds. If there is any help that would be nice! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
f16jockey_2 Posted March 24, 2021 Share Posted March 24, 2021 fuel_flow_scalar is a multiplier. Pounds/hr or kilograms/hr depend on the aircraft. If a given aircraft consumes 1000 lbs/hr (454kg/hr) with fuel_flow_scalar at 1.00, it'll consume 1100 lbs/hr with a fuel flow scalar at 1.10. So for that aircraft, every 0.10 units of fuel_flow_scalar represents 100 lbs/hr of fuel. For every aircraft this will be different. Wim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
