Power and Thrust for Cruising Flight

Reciprocating-Engine Power and Specific Fuel Consumption (SFC) • Engine power decreases with altitude –Proportional to air density, w/o supercharger –Supercharger increases inlet manifold pressure, increasing power and extending maximum altitude 14 P(h) P SL =1.132 ρ(h) ρ SL −0.132 Anderson (Torenbeek) SFC∝ Independent of Altitude
