Description: This is a graph showing the compressor discharge temperature vs. ambient temperature for 10 psi of boost. The red line is at sea level (14.696 psia), the blue dotted line is at 5000 ft above sea level (12.23 psia), and the green dashed line is at 10,000ft above sea level (10.11 psia). Notice that as elevation increases, the CDT increases noticeably for the same ambient temperature.
