Q

the ____ ______ ___ ______ (FCOC) is a radiator-type matrix designed to cool the oil and heat the fuel at the same time.

the oil will be ____ highly pressurised than the fuel to prevent contamination

as a minimum requirement, there will be a temperature transducer at the ______ from the heater/cooler sending a signal to a indicator on the ______ ____

A

the FUEL COOLED OIL COOLER (FCOC) is a radiator-type matrix designed to cool the oil and heat the fuel at the same time.

the oil will be MORE highly pressurised than the fuel to prevent contamination

as a minimum requirement, there will be a temperature transducer at the OUTLET from the heater/cooler sending a signal to a indicator on the FLIGHT DECK

Q

the LP fuel ______ is used to provide clean fuel for the HP system.

usually a felt, or ______, type element filter cleaning to __ microns

unusual to have bypass facility so differential _______ switch fitted in parallel and LP fuel ___ pressure warning switch provide indications on the flight deck

A

the LP fuel FILTER is used to provide clean fuel for the HP system.

usually a felt, or PAPER, type element filter cleaning to 10 microns

unusual to have bypass facility so differential PRESSURE switch fitted in parallel and LP fuel LOW pressure warning switch provide indications on the flight deck

Q

fuel flow _________ informs crew of rate at which fuel is being used so that correlation with tank gauges can be made

common types are rotating ____, ____ flow and the rotor-_____ types

fitted in _____ with the LP fuel flow

fuel flow returning from HP system must re-enter _____ the FFM to avoid being counted _____

A

fuel flow TRANSMITTER informs crew of rate at which fuel is being used so that correlation with tank gauges can be made

common types are rotating VANE, MASS flow and the rotor-TORQUE types

fitted in SERIES with the LP fuel flow

fuel flow returning from HP system must re-enter AFTER the FFT to avoid being counted TWICE
