Each engine is instrumented to capture the outside air temperature, mean gas temperature, power available, indicated airspeed, net power, and compressor speed.
oat = outside air temperature
mgt = mean gas temperature
pa = power available
ias = indicated airspeed
np = net power
ng = compressor speed (that one’s not as obvious)
Design torque is not a measured variable, thus it’s not in the X_train.csv (features) file. And the goal is to predict the torque margin which is a function of the design torque. Torque margin is given in the y_train.csv (targets) file.
