G'day Old Fella,
If that was a reply to my question, thanks but that wasn't quite what I was getting at.......
I'll try to phrase the question better:
If you had two identical a/c, and on one you selected a derate of say, 20%. On the other you selected an assumed temp reduction that equated to a 20% reduction. I think that on the second a/c, (the one with the ass temp) you actually have more power than you have on the first a/c (the one with the derate) due to the way it's calculated - for example, it's not really 60 degrees OAT outside.
This is leaving aside the issues with advancing the T/L in either case should you require full power. (and whether that's a good idea with a derate)
Can you help with an answer?
Regards,
Fred.
