I am trying to design an on-board horsepower display for an experimental aircraft.
The parameters that determine engine power are RPM, manifold pressure, altitude, temperature and mixture. Each of these parameters is currently monitored and displayed individually in the airplane and the signal output levels are known.
Each of the parameters have a different effect on engine horsepower. The formulae for the horsepower solution have been developed and I can input the values into a spreadsheet and generate the desired result.
What I want to do is feed these signals into a processor, have the processor do the computations, and display the result on either an analog or digital display.
Thanks for any assistance,
David
