2

29
Q

APU requirements for ETOPS?

A

Must be able to restarted at all altitudes during flight.

30
Q

Best application of braking for Steel brake discs?

A

Frequent small applications (allows disc to cool). Opposite to Carbon

31
Q

Detonation in Piston Engine caused by?

A

Anything that increases pressure or temperature of mixture

32
Q

Purpose of Pressurising and Dump Valve in Gas Turbine Fuel System?

A

Return low pressure fuel to return, and pass high pressure fuel to burners (ensures high enough fuel pressure for atomisation)

33
Q

Centrifugal Compressor Compression Ratio (per stage)

A

5:1

34
Q

Impulse Reaction Turbine - Duct on Rotor?

A

Slightly convergent

35
Q

Fuel Flow is measured at what location in the fuel system?

A

After the HP Valve (last point before engine)

36
Q

Settings on Flight Dect Oxygen System

A

Normal, Emergency, Test, and 100% Oxygen

37
Q

Constant Displacement or Axial Piston Pump requires an _________ and a __________.

A

Accumulator and Automatic Cut Out Valve (ACOV). The Constant Displacement Pump stroke is based on angle of piston body

38
Q

Purpose of Blocking Valve during Engine Start on Variable Volume/Constant Pressure Pump?

A

To reduce load on starter - sets pump to zero output during engine start

39
Q

Impact on Bleed Air (Charge Air) across Air Conditioning Pack (Bootstrap System)

A

Pressure drop and Temperature drop

40
Q
