Engine RPM Analysis

This tool analyzes aircraft engine data from CSV flight logs to identify periods when the engine is running between 1200-2000 RPM. This is useful for analyzing ground operations and taxi times, filtering out very low RPM periods like engine start/stop.

  1. Prepare your data: Ensure your flight logs are in CSV format and compressed into a ZIP file
  2. Upload the ZIP file: Click the file input below and select your ZIP file
  3. Review the results: The tool will display all periods where the engine RPM was between 1200-2000
  4. Export results: You can export the analysis results as a CSV file for further processing

Upload Files

Select either a single ZIP file or multiple CSV files

The analysis provides the following information for each low RPM period:

  • File: The source CSV file name
  • Start/End Time: When the low RPM period began and ended
  • Duration: How long the engine ran below 2000 RPM
  • Average RPM: The average RPM during the period
  • Min/Max RPM: The lowest and highest RPM values during the period
  • Normal Idle: Engine at normal operating idle (1200-1400 RPM)
  • Taxi Operations: Ground movement between parking and runway (1400-1800 RPM)
  • High Idle/Run-up: Pre-takeoff checks and high idle operations (1800-2000 RPM)
  • Ground Holding: Waiting periods during ground operations

Note: Engine start/stop periods (below 1200 RPM) are automatically filtered out to focus on operational ground time.
