Abstract
Exhaust Gas Temperature directly reflects one cylinder or whole engine gas and oil combustion status, through the study of EGT, can indirectly understand and master the engine performance parameters, and then targeted to improve the program, so that the engine work in the best performance status. This paper introduces the principle of engine EGT indication system and analyze the relationship between EGT value and engine performance is based on engine measurement parameters of Lycoming piston engine test bench.
