19–7 Propulsion Group<br />
The propulsion group consists of the engine system, fuel system, and drive system.<br />
19-7.1 Engine System<br />
The engine system consists of the main engines, the engine-exhaust system, and the engine accessories.<br />
The engine-system weights are:<br />
Weng = χengNengWone eng<br />
Wexh = χexhNeng(K0exh + K1exhP )<br />
Wacc = χacc2.0088 flub(Weng/Neng) 0.5919 N 0.7858<br />
eng<br />
where flub =1.4799 if the accessory weight includes the lubrication system weight, 1.0 if the lubrication<br />
system weight is in the engine weight. The exhaust-system weight is per engine, including any IR<br />
suppressor. The accessory-weight equation is the AFDD82 model. Based on 16 aircraft, the average<br />
error of the accessories equation is 11.5% (fig. 19-15). Parameters are defined in table 19-10, including<br />
units as used in these equations.<br />

19-7.2 Propeller/Fan Installation<br />
The rotor group equations are used for propellers.<br />
19-7.3 Fuel System<br />
The fuel system consists of tanks and support structure (including fuel tanks, bladders, supporting<br />
structure, filler caps, tank covers, and filler material for void and ullage), and fuel plumbing (including<br />
fuel-system weight not covered by tank weight). The fuel-system weights (AFDD82 model) are:<br />
