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

Understanding the Results
Section titled “Understanding the Results”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
Typical RPM Scenarios (1200-2000 RPM)
Section titled “Typical RPM Scenarios (1200-2000 RPM)”- 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.
