UH-1H

Development Report

New engine modelling methods have been in progress during development of the Mi-24P and AH-64D modules. The new UH-1H engine model was in many ways a test bed for the methods we then used in the AH-64D engines model. We’ve been gathering feedback about DCS: UH-1H over the years and thanks to our forum users; Piston85, Ramsay and others, we have pinpointed changes we would work on during the new engine model development. Now we are finishing the deployment of the new engine model to UH-1H and are eager to let you try it. Please make sure to give us your feedback.

The new model represents fine tuning and here are some points about why we were working on it:

• Some of the old engine model parameters did not match with their real counterpart, especially in transient regimes.
  
• We wanted to improve temperature regimes compliance to match the real world counterpart, like EGT for example and other engine parameters changing, depending on altitude and outside temperature changes.
  
• We wanted to model some of the mechanics better, for instance a new model has allowed us to expand states for connection of the free turbine and main rotor.
  
• The new model allowed us to improve details of start-up and shutdown procedures, because of expanded modelling of compressors and free turbine.

The new model allows us to improve the details of start-up and shutdown procedures, because of the expanded modelling of the compressor and free turbine.



The image shows that we are now accurately modelling auto-rotation situation readings on the tachometer. The real aircraft dial is on the left and the DCS: UH-1H Huey dial on the right.
