The exhaust temperature of an M1's turbine is very high, which makes it dangerous for infantry to take cover behind it.
With the main engines (the cone shape nozzle you see at the end), the exhaust temperatures are in excess of 3000 degrees.
If the sensor is installed after the turbo, the exhaust temperature can be monitored.
However, at higher pressure ratios, the compressor discharge temperature can exceed the exhaust temperature.
The exhaust temperature is 400 C, hot enough to be used for many industrial processes.
Materials technology could potentially place an upper limit on the exhaust temperature of chemical rockets.
When excessively high exhaust temperatures were detected, the fuel injection computer would richen the mixture.
The unit can also be cleaned during a turnaround or by raising the exhaust temperature.
This led to excessive exhaust temperatures and, hence, to the fires.
It *increases* the efficiency of the powerplants by effectively lowering the exhaust temperature.
