Merlin negative G cutout too quick?

[IvanK]

The documented value in RAE documentation specifically investigating this problem is cutout onset at 0.1G ...."i.e. at accelerometer readings of less than 0.1g"





The evolution of the cutout and time taken for recovery is also well documented in AVIA 18/1281 Tests of RAE devices for the reduction of "Negative G" engine cutting on merlin engined fighter aircraft" Though specifically looking at various cutout reduction methods some good info on cut duration and recovery in there with various amounts of negative G application.

Both these documents are available at the UK National Archives. The devs have copies of both these documents.

Hi! what about Tilly orifice? Do you have any data about minimal G with this improving?

Excellent IvanK,

now perhaps we can all stop guessing.
