This is about all I can find.



Ground Operations

Fuel can be saved by minimizing APU utilization.
Average APU fuel flow rate under normal operation is
105kg per hour on the ground.


APU Operation During Flight

For APU operation during flight, increase fuel flow
acording to the following table. These increments
include the APU fuel flow and the effect of increased
drag from the APU door.

Pressure
Altitude........ APU FUEL FLOW (KG/HR)
(1000ft)

39................ 70
35................ 75
31................ 85
25................ 95
20................ 105
15................ 110
10................ 125
5.................. 135

Hope this helps. A search on the web may find more.
