Airconditioning Flashcards
The Pack Flow Control Valve closes automatically in case of:
A Pack overheat(On ground only),
Engine Start
or operation of the Fire or Ditching push buttons.
The Ram air inlet and outlet flaps close during
Take off and landing to avoid ingestion of foreign matter. During take off they close when TO power is set and struts are compressed. During landing they close once main gear struts are compressed and speed is at or above 70kt. They open 20 sec after speed drops below 70kt.
The pack flow controller delivers higher flow when
In single pack operation, or
APU is supplying.
The actual temperature for each zone is measured in the
Cockpit for cockpit zone.
Lavatory extraction circuit.
Galley ventilation system for the galley.
The temperature selection range is from
18-30
During a primary zone controller channel failure zone temperatures are controlled to
24*
With the zone temperature selector in the 12 o’clock position the selected temperature is
24*.
In the cld position it is 18 and hot position 30
Pack flow is automatically selected to high during
Single pack operation or when the APU is supplying bleed.
Pack flow LO, NORM and HI equates to —- percent
LO 80%
NORM 100%
HI 120%
In case of a ditching, an override switch on the control panel allows the flight crew to
Close the outflow valve and all valves below the floatation line.
An automatic transfer of the Airconditioning controller occurs:
70 seconds after each landing, or
If the operating system fails
If FMGC data is not available the pressure controller uses
The captain baro reference from the ADIRS and the LDG ELEV selection
In Ground mode the outflow fully opens
Before take off and 55 seconds after landing. At touchdown any residual pressure is released at 500 fpm.
During take off the pressure controller pre-pressurises the aircraft
At a rate of 400fpm until ^P is .1 PSI (to avoid surge once airborne). At liftoff the controller initiates the climb phase.
During cruise the cabin altitude is limited to
A target maximum of approximately of 8000 ft
