109 prop pitch (rpm) and the supercharger

as soon as I'm shown data that says a prop turning at 1500 rpm is going to be efficient.....yes I would happily accept it, it's all I'm asking for and not a tirade of sarcasm.....so you can stick your little blue face up your rectum.

bongo, what is the prop tip speed of a 3.1m prop at 2400rpm and 1500rpm?

Maximum helical tip velocity is an important parameter for propeller selection. In the absence of specific data from the prop manufacturer, it is safe to assume that (a) the maximum prop efficiency will be about 87% (for any metal prop a non-governmental agency can afford), and (b) that the prop efficiency begins to decrease dramatically when the prop is operated at a helical tip velocity in excess of 0.85 Mach. That occurs because the local air velocity over the surface of the prop (near the point of maximum airfoil thickness) will reach Mach 1, and create a shock wave, separating the flow and dissipating prop energy.

You should probably spend more time reading such things as the Pilot's Handbook of Aeronautical Knowledge instead of lurking on gaming sites if you are professional pilot who does not know this kind of basic stuff.

Just saying, it would be safer for you and your passengers.

I am simply pionting out that what you said about how to fly a Bf109 is in conflict with what Steinhilper said about how to fly a Bf109

But is not in conflict and agrees with what is related in the anecdotes.

If you understood how an adjustable pitch propeller works in conjunction with the engine, you would see that.

It is useless to discuss it with you. Have a nice life, Tagert.

To produce maximum thrust at full power your tip speed should fall between .88 and .92 mach. To move between .88 and .92 mach usually takes a change of about 110 to 120 RPM. This of course varies depending on your particular propeller and the temperature.

If your tip speed is less than .88 mach you should increase RPM to achieve maximum thrust. If your tip speed is greater than .92 mach you should reduce RPM to achieve maximum thrust. Do not exceed the published operating limitations of your engine or propeller.

Over .92 mach the airflow begins to detach from the propeller which decreases efficiency and dramatically increases noise. To improve performance and public relations you should consider reducing RPM so as to fall within the .88 to .92 mach range. Your propeller will be producing maximum thrust which is good for you, and less noise which is good for all of us.

If that is true..

Why get so upset and say I was attacking you?

Brings to mind the old saying..

thou dost protest too much

I dont need some walt without a pilots license telling me what I should concentrate on thank you.
