B Flashcards
What are major components of a typical gas turbine engine
Air inlet, compressor, combustion, turban, exhaust, and accessory section
What determines the amount of air passing through a turbine engine?
Compressor, speed, forward, speed of the aircraft and air density
what is the two principal Types compressor currently used in turban engines
Centrifugal and axial flow
How are determine engine, rotor blades attached to the rotor disk?
Bulb type root fur type root dovetail type root
name at least three types of combustion chamber systems
Can annular can annular and reverse flow annular
What is the purpose of an interconnect tube attached between can type combustion chambers?
Flame propagation during start up
What prevents burning of the combustion chamber?
cooling air along the inside of the liner
What are carbon seals used for in turban engines?
oil seals for the rotor shaft bearings
What are the desired effects of turban engine compressor field cleaning?
The air flows through the fan section of a turbo fan engine, and flows around the outside of the engine instead of through it
What methods are commonly used to accomplish turban, engine, compressor field cleaning?
Fluid washing, abrasive grip blast
Name, alyssa advantage of Turbo fan over turbo jet
Additional thrust without increasing fuel
What are the functions of an axial flow turbine nozzle?
to prepare the mass airflow for the driving the turbine rotor and deflect the gases to a specific angle
What are some ways of relieving thermal stress on turban disc?
Bleed air to the face of the disk, or by the grooves in the turban disc
What type of compressor blade damage may be found when inspecting compressor blades
Dents, galling, pitting, crack, scratches, burrs, burns, and gouges
What is used to mark both hot and cold section parts for repair?
Leo die commercial felt tip or chalk
