Title: Please correct about the fuel tank of N1k.
Post by: busa on April 13, 2009, 12:24:59 PM
Hello Pyro,and all.
this is busa01.

Please correct about the fuel tank of N1k.

Why did N1K lose the fuselage fuel tank?

N1K2-J have the following four fuel tanks.
Main (forward fuselage) tank. (270L)
Sub (rear fuselage) tank. (260L)
Left-wing tank. (93L)
Right-wing tank. (93L)

There are the two operation methods.

Integrate mode. (Normal mode)
All fuel is first supplied to a forward fuselage tank.
And a carburetor is supplied from a forward fuselage tank.
This mode is used in normally and Air combat.

Direct mode. (Selected mode)
Fuel is equally used from all fuel tanks.
Or used from selected fuel tanks.

And automatic fire-extinguishing equipment and bullet-proof fuel tank were installed also in N1K.
The probability which extinguishes the first fire by this equipment was 95%.
Same pilots saved with this equipment exist. 
However, this equipment was extinguishing the fire by carbon dioxide injection.
For the reason, the fire after the second time was not able to be extinguished.

By the way, the fuel consumption, endurance and cruising distance of N1K are almost the same as Ki84.

Cruise speed 389km/h, RPM2000 MP+100mmHG~-200mmHG, Alt 3000m, Fuel consumption 147Liter/Hour.

Endurance(No DT)Naval spec : Maximum power 0.5hour + Cruise power 3.0hour
Maximum Endurance(with DT) : Cruise power 6hour36min

I will re-submit these detailed data

Thank you for reading my poor English.
