Variations in mixture ratios for carburettors are achieved by the adjustment of ? Intake > airport
As altitude increases the mixture ratio of a piston engine should be adjusted to ?
As altitude increases mixture ratio of a piston engine should be adjusted to Reduce fuel flow in order to compensate the decreasing air density.
When applying carburettor heating ?
When applying carburettor heating The mixture becomes richer. When you apply carburettor heating air (which will mix with fuel in carburettor) passes around muffler (or exhaust pipe) in order to be heated to avoid risks of icing the air's density decreases as air heated what generates a mixture (mixture) richer. When pilot moves mixture lever of a piston engine towards a lean position Amount of fuel entering combustion chamber reduced. When you apply carburettor heating air (which will mix with fuel in carburettor) passes around muffler (or exhaust pipe) in order to be heated to avoid risks of icing the air's density decreases as air heated what generates a mixture (mixture) richer. When altitude increases without adjustment of mixture ratio piston engine performance affected because of a A decrease of air density with a fuel flow which becomes too high. When you apply carburettor heating air (which will mix with fuel in carburettor) passes around muffler (or exhaust pipe) in order to be heated to avoid risks of icing the air's density decreases as air heated what generates a mixture (mixture) richer. A rich mixture setting has to be used during climb segments this results in a Lower cylinder head temperature. To obtain best torque during climb you will have to decrease fuel entering in carburettor in order to compensate decreasing of air density
a rich mixture will not permit to deliver best available power but it permits a lower cylinder head temperature. Maximum exhaust gas temperature egt of a piston engine theoretically associated with a Fuel to air ratio of 5. Egt relative to temperature of charge as it burns within cylinder cht measures temperature of engine cylinder
the highest egt achieved at a ratio of 15 parts of air to one part of fuel
if ratio reduced ie rich charge temperature reduces due to excess fuel being left in cylinder if ratio greater than 15 1 ie lean or weak charge cooled excess air to appreciate why cht increases with lean mixtures we must consider speed at which fuel burns ie its flame rate lean mixtures burn slower than rich mixtures this means more heat transferred to engine components with lean mixtures
example if you move a lighted match quickly under you hand no problem but move it slowly you will burn your hand! slow burning lean mixtures will increase cht. 8 For a given type of oil oil viscosity depends on Fuel to air ratio of 5. Egt relative to temperature of charge as it burns within cylinder cht measures temperature of engine cylinder

Egt relative to temperature of charge as it burns within cylinder cht measures temperature of engine cylinder

Egt relative to temperature of charge as it burns within cylinder cht measures temperature of engine cylinder

note in this question 'with a constant power lever setting' so as you climb power will be decreasing because air becoming less dense so manifold absolute pressure will be decreasing. 20 The torque of an aeroplane engine can be measured at Gear box which located between engine the propeller.
