MAP is the absolute pressure in the manifold, measured from zero datum ie a vacuum.
Boost is the pressure in the manifold above atmospheric.
2.
"Zero boost is static atmospheric pressure; often referred to as "static boost" ie 29-30" MAP. They are both indications of the pressure in the inlet manifold and therefore are "the same" in a sense however, MAP uses absolute zero pressure as its datum and (usually) In Hg as the units, "boost" uses the prevailing atmospheric pressure as its datum and (usually) psi as its units."
The usual units for boost is psi and for MAP is In Hg. Think Fahrenheit and Celsius; two systems for measuring temperature but each with a different datum point and measured in units of different increments. Two different systems of measuring the same thing.
3.
The gauges do the same thing. They measure the pressure in the inlet manifold and convey the result to the cockpit in either lbs per square inch or inches of mercury. With everything stationary both instruments will read the ambient pressure.
The checks for both are the same. You wind your altimeter to Zero and if the subscale is lower than standard 1013.2 then the boost or MAP gauge will read either either below Zero or below 29.92 ins. With an inches subscale they will read the same.
The ratio of boost to MAP is 2.036, or 2 for short; so for every pound of boost pushed into the engine a MAP gauge would increase by 2 ins and when the engine goes into suction mode, vice versa. |
