This SAE Aerospace Recommended Practice (ARP) provides to the aerospace industry a procedure for the consistent and accurate calculation of fuel flow using turbine flowmeters during development, production, and post overhaul/repair gas turbine engine testing.
Rationale:
One of the cited references has been revised - a common calibration curve for Jet-A and Jet-A1 fuels has been replaced by two calibration curves, one for each. The revision will address this change, and remove any ambiguity that may arise by referring to the old document.
