Not really. On the T56 engine TIT = (T)urbine (I)nlet
(T)empreture.

Yes really, on every jet engine TIT is Total Inlet Temperature.

Yep.

Nope.

Yep, the individually wired theromcouples are sent to a Totalizer, when
they
are not wired in series. That is why the datum is a total.

One has to wonder if the trolls of ram will ever catch a clue.

The irony of it all.

Total Air Temperature (TAT)is the maximum temperature attainable by air
when brought to rest adiabatically.

Total Air Temperature is the total of several probes at the inlet of the
engine. (ie T1)

The word "Total", when used to
describe the type of temperature reading that a probe is reporting, has
nothing to do with totalizers or wiring connections.

The term "total" has to do with the use of multiple probes. Wiring
thermocoulpes in seris gives a Total temperature. Where the probes are
wired in parallel, a Totalizer is used downstream to add the thermocouple
outputs together.

Why do you post, Grasso, when it is clear that there is no subject WRT
aircraft that you know? Perhaps you would do better sticking to your parts
catalogs and forget about pretending you understand anything about aircraft.
Otherwise, you are likely to become a hazard to aviation.
