Hi! I am attempting to build some small site dedicated to the Bf 109K-4. It should list what preceeded the K-4, technical details like engine and armament, and operational use.
Right now I am need a bit of help for fuel consumption figures. I only have an incomplete (Sondernotleistung is missing) spec. fuel consumption rate for DB and DC, and nothing for D-2 and DM. Though I can make some very rough estimates, for DC it should be around 600-650lit/h at 2000PS... but I want to list reliable, precise figures, perhaps some of you can help. Help with boost rates would be also great for some of these engines.
I will list here power data, so those can help only need to type a few numbers.
DB605DB

Not very important, but if someone has consuption or other info for special configurations (like 1.8ata setting for DC), that would be nice, too.
605DC, 1.8ata Sondernotleistnung powers:
With 1.8/1.8ata, C-3fuel
1800PS /2800rpm / 1.8ata =
With 1.8/1.98ata, C-3 fuel but no MW injection
1725PS / 2800rpm / 1.8ata =
Power and consumption with non-methnanol DB605DB config a Notleistung, 1.5ata would be also very interesting!
Thanks for your time and efforts.
