Landing max weight with auto brakes 3 ( we have 1 2 3 max) gives an adjusted brake energy of 25.9 which fits within the caution zone and no take off for one hour however use of reverse thrust and auto brake 3 gives a 14.7. use of autobrake 2 and reverse gives you 30 min turnaround
Let me see if I got this one; auto-brakes do their thing at a constant rate, since the figures you just gave are different, I'd say that the "constant rate" the auto-brakes work around is speed, as in, they slow the aircraft down X knots/sec? And, BTW, are those numbers you mentioned PSI?

Thanks in advance.
