I'm building a little spreadsheet so that I can track performance over time. I want to enter observations such as indicated altitude, airspeed, OAT, rpm and MAP, fuel burn etc and have it calculate density alt, true airspeed, % power etc.
This will help for some planning, but mostly to identify trends over time, potentially catch problems, and will help quantify any performance changes due to any changes I make.
I've got all the calcs except for % power. I have a power setting table but I'm a bit stuck on how I would use that in Excel. I'd really like to find a formula for calculating % power based on density altitude, rpm, and MAP. Any ideas?
This is for an O-360.
