The checklists will be available within the control cab and will be used by all operators.
135
List the 5 basic sections of a jet engine
1. Intake
2. Compression
3. Combustion
4. Turbine
5. Exhaust
136
Describe the Intake on a Jet Engine
An opening in the front of the aircraft that allows outside air to enter the engine
137
Describe the Compression section of a Jet Engine
Compresses the incoming air and delivers it to the combustion section
138
Describe the Combustion section of a Jet Engine
Mixes fuel with the compressed air and then ignites the mixture. Only about 25% of the air from the compressor is burned in the combustion section. The remaining 75% is used to cool the exhaust before it enters the turbine section.
139
Describe the Turbine of a Jet Engine
Extracts and uses a major portion of the energy in the gas stream to turn the compressor and rotors. In a jet aircraft, the turbines are used to power hydraulic pumps and generators. In helicopters and propellor driven aircraft, the turbines are geared to rotor blades and propellers through gear boxes.
140
Describe the Exhaust section of a Jet Engine.
In turbojet and turbofan engines, the exhaust acts as the source of thrust. In helicopters and propeller driven aircraft, the exhaust is merely a byproduct of the thrust production process.
141
What are the 4 general engine types?
1. Turbojet
2. Turboshaft
3. Turboprop
4. Turbofan
142
Describe a Turbojet engine
Only used in the EA-6B Prowler. No longer used in the rest of the fleet. Basic engine that uses the 5 engine stages.
143
Describe a Turboshaft engine
Used exclusively in helicopters. The gas stream leaving the exhaust section sound a series of turbines that are geared to the rotor through a series of gearboxes.
144
Describe a Turboprop engine.
The E-2C and C-2 aircraft use the Turboprop engine. Like the turbo shaft engine, the gas stream spins a series of turbines that in turn, spin the propeller via the shaft.
145
Describe a Turbofan engine.
The F/A-18 and E/A-18G Growler aircraft uses the turbofan. Similar to the turbojet, the inlet duct is replaced with a fan enclosed within a cowling. This fan draws in more air than the compressor section of the turbojet, and has a lower fuel consumption ratio than the turbojet.
