What is the average total fuel flow for an A330 on a long range flight in lbs.?

Hi.

Of course it depends on weight, altitude and std temp deviation and speed. The following values are not are from FCOM 3, actually noted observations of mine during flight. The avarage Mach no 0.81.

When it is about 200 ton, at FL 370 (that is approximate fuelwise Opt level at Std temp) 2 eng total consumption rate is 100 kg/min (approx).

When it is about 170 ton, at FL 400 (that is approximate fuelwise Opt level at Std temp) 2 eng total consumption rate is 90 kg/min (approx).

So you can calculate Fuel Flow per engine in lbs on your own.

I hope it helps:ok:

Aprox 5.5 t/hr for 5 - 8 hr FT

@ 2.205 lb/Kg = 12,125 lb/hr

Below 480...12000ff
480+ to 500 12500
500+ to 505 13000
505+ to Max 13500
