B Reset to 7 Zero Tachymetre 7. Using the TACHYMETRE scale The TACHYMETRE dial is mainly used to compute an average speed after noting how long it takes to travel a fixed distance (like one mile or one kilometer), but it can also be used to compute many other things. The dial is a logarithmic scale that uses this formula to compute: TACHYMETRE DIAL = 3600 / Elapsed Time In Seconds The chronograph second hand indicates 1/10, 1/4, 1/2, 1, 10, 100 or 1,000 etc. units (miles, objects, pounds etc.). When stopped, the second hand points to the number on the TACHYMETRE scale by which the number of units (1, 10, 100 or 1,000 etc.) must be multiplied to obtain per-hour production rate or per-hour speed. 4 5 4 5 4 5 4 5 40 40 35 4 31 60 50 10 20 14 14 13 40 12 NAUT.35 STAT .40 30 2 6 13 30 8 FALCON COMMAND 13 30 14 15 14 15 35 2 3 4 6 START/STOP 11 NAUT.35 STAT .40 30 80 10 12 10 9 8 A 80 12 13 20 30 75 75 11 12 10 40 12 31 60 50 11 11 FALCON COMMAND 70 70 CHASE-DURER 24 25 4 65 65 10 95 90 2 6 MPH 55 10 95 90 8 50 85 10 95 90 2 3 4 6 10 95 90 85 10 12 60 55 50 START/STOP 85 80 CHASE-DURER 10 9 8 A 80 85 30 75 75 18 19 20 21 2 17 22 32 42 18 19 20 21 2 17 22 5 3 70 70 16 65 65 16 MPH 55 15 50 15 60 55 50 16 16 24 25 18 19 20 21 2 17 22 32 42 18 19 20 21 2 17 22 5 3 Example No. 1 – A car covers one mile in 30 seconds. The second hand, stopped as the mile marker is passed, reads 120 on the TACHYMETRE scale. Average speed of the car is 120 x 1, or 120 miles per hour. Example No. 2 – To measuring something much slower, such as a bicycle, you must use a shorter distance because the elapsed time must fall within the 7.2 - 60 second range. Although decimal units (100 liters, 1 mile, 10 kilometers) make computing simple, in practice, the TACHYMETRE scale can be used to calculate velocities and production rates from any number of units. For this example, it took 36 seconds for a cyclist to travel 1/4 of a mile. Reading the TACHYMETRE dial displays a speed of 100mph, but the cyclist only traveled 1/4 of a mile, so the actual speed would be 1/4 of that or an average speed of 25mph over the quarter mile. Tachymetre 8. NOTE - The scale is valid for elapsed times from 4.8 seconds to 60 seconds. If the duration of the event is outside this range, then the answer on the dial is not valid. Short durations of under eight seconds can be extremely difficult to time accurately. Some of the following examples show ways to get around this limitation. 4 5 4 5 40 35 4 5 4 5 40 NAUT.35 STAT .40 30 2 6 4 FALCON COMMAND 31 60 50 10 40 12 30 8 20 14 13 30 14 15 14 15 35 2 3 4 11 NAUT.35 STAT .40 30 10 12 6 START/STOP 13 14 13 16 16 24 18 19 20 21 2 25 17 22 32 42 5 18 19 20 21 2 17 22 3 Example No. 3 – A copier makes 10 copies in 45 seconds. The sweep second hand was thus stopped at the 45-second mark, which coincides with the figure 80 on the TACHYMETRE scale. The hourly rate of this copier is 80 x 10, or 800 copies. 80 CHASE-DURER 10 9 8 A 80 12 13 20 30 75 75 11 12 10 40 12 31 60 50 11 11 FALCON COMMAND 70 70 18 19 20 21 2 17 22 3 4 65 10 95 90 2 6 65 MPH 55 10 95 90 8 50 85 10 95 90 2 3 4 6 10 95 90 85 10 12 60 55 50 START/STOP 85 80 CHASE-DURER 10 9 8 A 80 85 30 75 75 24 18 19 20 21 2 25 17 22 32 42 5 70 70 16 65 16 65 MPH 55 15 50 15 60 55 50 Example No. 4 – A manufacturing production line timed for 30 seconds produces 72 parts. Stopped at the 30-second mark, the chronograph second hand points to 120 on the TACHYMETRE scale; the production rate of the machine is 120 x 72, or 8,640 parts per hour. More Examples: Suppose you wanted to measure the speed of a jet airplane. After traveling 10 kilometers, you noted that 40 seconds had elapsed. The TACHYMETRE dial displays 90, but you traveled 10 kilometers, so the answer would be 10 times that, or 900 km/hour. You can also measure other things, like fuel consumption. Suppose a pound of fuel took 48 seconds to burn. The chronograph second hand indicates on the TACHYMETRE dial that you are burning 75 pounds of fuel per hour. E6B Flight Computer 9. The E6B Flight Computer is based on the principle of the slide rule. The unit of measurement is the base 10 logarithms (log10). These instructions cover only the basics of using the E6B Flight Computer Bezel/slide rule. A more complete description may be found in your public library or on the internet. How to read the scale The most important technique to master is reading the scale. The numbered tick marks can represent a range of values. For example, on the scale on the face of the watch, the numeral 30 to the left of the letters “NAUT” can represent 30, or 300 or 3000 or 3.0. The nine tick marks between the 30 and 35 each represent 1/10 of the distance between 30 and 35, or 300 and 350, or 3000 and 3500, or 3.0 and 3.5. So for 3.0 and 3.5 each one of the tick marks represents .05; for 30 and 35, 0.5; for 300 and 350, 5; for 3000 and 3500, 50. You can see it is important that you keep track of the range that each interval represents. How to use the E6B Flight Computer Bezel 5 10 9 95 10 When doing calculations, the rotating bezel will represent the time and the face/dial the units (distance, pounds, 6 55 MPH MPH 65 gallons, etc.) 11 95 10 80 85 10 8 2 6 75 6 4 11 FALCON COMMAND 10 13 20 14 14 30 22 23 40 31 12 60 5 40 18 19 20 21 2 17 25 22 32 16 24 42 15 25 16 24 15 30 70 4 5 2 3 4 ¤ Let’s try an example: You’re in your car on the freeway traveling at 60 milesper-hour. You’ve been traveling for 2.5 hours. How far have you gone? 17 18 19 20 16 21 35 65 80 15 60 75 10 95 90 55 13 85 NAUT.35 STAT .40 30 70 12 50 45 65 14 50 12 MPH 55 CHASE-DURER 10 9 8 5 55 90 50 ¤ Solution: Turn the bezel so that the red numeral 10 on the bezel (which represents 1 hour) is directly over the “60” on the face at 12 o’clock (which represents the 60 miles traveled in 1 hour). Directly below the numeral 25 (2.5 hours) on the bezel you should see the numeral 15 on the face. The 15 represents the significant digits of the answer and we must decide whether there should be none, 1 or 2 zeros after the 15. E6B Flight Computer 10. You can probably guess how many, because 15 miles in 2.5 hours is obviously too little and 1500 is obviously too much. So the answer must be 150 miles. ¤ Let’s try another example: Again, you’re going down the freeway at 70 miles-per-hour. You’ve been traveling at that speed for 110 minutes. How far have you traveled? ¤ Solution: Turn the bezel so that the numeral 60 (which represents 60 minutes) on the bezel is right above the number 70 (which represents 70 miles-per-sixty minutes). Now find the numeral 11 on the bezel and look directly below it on the face. You will note that the 11 is between the numerals 12 and 13 on the face. We must now interpolate. First we must decide whether the numerals 12 and 13 on the face represent 12 and 13, 120 and 130, 1200 and 1300, etc. It’s obvious that 12 is too little and 1200 is too big, but sometimes it’s not so obvious. So here’s another method. 55 50 45 65 70 65 75 80 CHASE-DURER 85 2 3 4 8 2 6 6 4 11 FALCON COMMAND 15 12 12 14 30 75 13 11 13 than 2 and less than 4 digits. In other words, it must have 3 digits until you get above 14 hours or 840 minutes. After using the Flight Computer for a while these mental/estimates will become second nature (i.e. intuitive). Now that we’ve done the mental calculation, we know that the answer must have 3 digits. Therefore 12 must represent the number 120 and 13 must represent the number 130. Since there are nine ticks between the 12 and 13, there are ten divisions between them. Since they represent the difference between the numbers 120 and 130, which is 10, each tick must represent 1. Since the numeral 11 on the bezel is above the eighth tick after 10 20 11 10 40 13 50 12 31 60 At 70 miles-per-hour (70 miles in 60 minutes), you would 65have to travel over 14 hours to go further than 1000 miles. 14 hours is 840 minutes. So the answer must have more 85 90 95 10 80 10 12 10 9 8 70 10 95 90 16 14 30 35 25 24 AUT.35 STA 23 0 N T.4 3 0 22 MPH 55 75 4 5 50 60 60 70 40 55 21 18 19 20 21 2 17 22 32 42 5 15 16 17 18 1 92 0 E6B Flight Computer 11. the 12 on the face, it represents 8. Therefore the distance traveled in 110 minutes at 70 miles-perhour is 120 + 8 or 128 miles.

Simply select the numeral on the bezel that represents the time interval and set the bezel so that number is directly above the numeral on the face represents the number of miles, kilometers, nautical miles or pounds of fuel traveled or used in that time period. Then, as time passes, you locate the lapsed time on the bezel and look directly below it for the approximate distance traveled, fuel usage, etc. How to convert basic units 13 14The Flight Computer is provided with red arrows on the face for converting to and from nautical miles, MPH 65 statute miles and kilometers. The Red arrow above the “A” in “STAT” on the face is for statute miles. The red arrow above the “U” in“NAUT” on the face is 12 13 14 1 5 11 16 for nautical miles. 65 55 17 70 10 75 50 The red arrow above the “H” in MPH is for 80 CHASE-DURER kilometers. To convert, for example, 13 KM. to statute and nautical, move the bezel so that the numeral 13 on the bezel is directly above the red arrow (above/right of the “H” in “MPH”) on the face. The statute miles in 31 13 KM. is found on the bezel directly above the red arrow above the “A” in “STAT” on the face, which is the numeral 8.1. Thus 8.1 statute miles equals 13 KM. If you look directly above the red arrow above the “U” in “NAUT” you will see the numeral 7.05. This is the number of nautical miles in 8.1 statute miles and 13 KM. E6B Flight Computer 12. Other conversions You can also do other conversion calculations on the Flight Computer. You can, for example, convert pounds of aviation gasoline, kerosene, or JP-4 to gallons. You can also convert from gallons to pounds. Simply move the bezel so that the 10 is over the numeral on the face that represents the number of pounds in 1 gallon of that type of liquid (see the conversion table on next page), find the number of gallons you’re converting on the bezel and look directly below that at the corresponding number on the face. That is the number of pounds! The example below converts 20 gallons of oil (petroleum) to pounds. The Conversion Table shows 1 gallon = 7.35 pounds, so setting the 10 on the bezel over 7.35 and looking under 20 on the bezel shows 147 pounds on the watch face scale. 95 10 8 2 6 60 4 5 55 6 4 11 FALCON COMMAND 10 20 19 14 19 15 16 1 22 23 24 25 425 30 232 22 19 20 21 21 7 18 35 18 14 30 20 40 13 40 50 12 31 60 14 15 16 17 2 3 4 13 10 12 10 9 8 12 50 80 10 95 90 45 75 CHASE-DURER 85 NAUT.35 STAT .40 30 70 21 65 15 MPH 55 75 11 50 NOTE! 70 85 90 75 80 95 10 20 65 70 Use the Flight Computer only to estimate fuel usage and travel distance.
