View Full Version : Prop sync and noise in twins


Mxsmanic
May 21st 07, 10:04 PM
I note that the Baron (and presumably other twins) has a prop sync switch that
somehow synchronizes the prop speeds on both engines. From recordings I've
heard of the interior noise of the aircraft, it does sound as though props
that are just slightly out of sync can produce a very irritating intermittent
noise as they move in and out of phase. Is it very bothersome in real life?
Also, how does the prop sync work? Does it actually move pitch or throttle
levers or something?

I don't fly something fancy enough to have an automagic sync thingy; so I
go by ear. It is a bit like tuning a guitar really, but fiddling with the
throttle (you can't rely on either the throttle position nor the rpm
indicators, not precise enough).

I was taught and always used the prop control for sync.

Yes... it can be REALLY irritating..

I have a twin engine boat, same issue... VERY annoying.. to me, and
many others..

Some don't seem to mind.. (?)

Not only the noise, but the vibrations , when out of sync, can be very
annoying as well...

We had a Cessna 337 on our line for charter use at one time. It had a sync
gauge. Strangely enough, whenever I had occasion to fly this bird I always
ended up syncing the props by ear. You could easily feel if one of them was
out even by a small amount of RPM.

The C-402s I used to fly had a prop syncrophaser but I never knew it to work.
The ear, OTOH, never lied. I never thought it was much of a problem to synch
twins. I'd have to ask my father about how they synched the props in the
Connies and C-54s.

Thanks. I guess people in the AVSIM forums actually answer questions rather
than just point people to Google.

Logically the smallest differences would also be the most annoying, since they
would result in such slow variations. And in theory you should be able to
eliminate them by adjusting RPM manually. But since the Baron has a prop sync
switch it occurred to me that perhaps the RPM levers aren't precise enough to
make it easy to sync the props (?).

I'm still not clear on whether or not this switch actually moves the prop
levers or what. If it does, it sounds expensive, since it needs an actuator
or servo in the cockpit or along the linkage. If it doesn't, it means that
some of the engine control positions might not accurately reflect the actual
engine settings and that engine settings might not obey the control movements
if prop sync is operating.

In the baron I got my multi in, you had to first get the props sync'd
up to within 50 rpm. Then you press the sync button and it fine tunes
the prop governors to get them exact. At least thats how I remember
it, it's been a while. Get a POH, it'll have detailed descriptions of
the system. IIRC Beechcraft POH's are pretty expensive (over $100)

Probably more like tuning a piano, since you're listening for the beat
frequency (or lack thereof).

I had you blocked for a long time but took you off recently and see I
made a mistake. Your still as much of a ass as before. Try to do a
just a little bit of work yourself.

Slightly out isn't as bad as way out IMO. One of our guys likes to fly with
that wow-wow-wow-wow going on for hours and it drives me nuts when I'm the
passenger. It's all I can do to prevent myself from reaching over and
adjusting the props myself.

In our aircraft there are pulse generators that monitor engine rpm and feed
a computer. The computer directly controls the right engine prop governor.
The system only works if the engines are already within 50 rpm of each
other. Even then, the system can take up to a minute to sync the props -
it's much easier and quicker to do it manually. Ours has never worked all
that well and we really don't use it, or need it for that matter.

Yep, AVSIM is greatly superior to rec.aviation.* for your purposes.

Off you go, then. Our loss is their gain.

(in the meantime, the 'mute' button will provide you all the sync
capabilities you'll ever need).

Well **** off there and leave us alone then. You love to tell us how

Same here Dudley..

I have a "few " hours in a 310... I just set them manually, they
stayed in sync very well

I have 2500 hrs on the boat, no auto sync, although they make them.

You engage it once the vessel is moving fwd in gear, then use one
throttle (usually the Starboard) and the Port engine tracks the
master..

The 1st sign of engine trouble is the engines going out of sync
without any aparent reason...

Cheers!

Don't flatter yourself skippy.

You are the hemorrhoid of Usenet.

But we love you anyway. Without you life has no meaning or rhyme.

Perhaps you could drill a hole in your "English As A Third Language"
textbook and hump the snot out of it.

Leave it open so you might learn something in that 5 second interval
betwixt engage-disengage-ment as you peer out the airport hotel window
for a little (OH!) plane spotting.

Amazing synchronicity that you're here, on a prop sync thread, making
mosquito noises. Sync up your whine fella.

Bob Stevens ("There I Was") tells the story of one Bedcheck Charlie
during WW II "who could never sync his props." The irritating noise was
considered even more obnoxious than the bombs he dropped, particularly
since he also never hit anything.

Most people here never post, so that cannot be determined. And whether I'm
welcome or not is irrelevant, as this is not a club.
