Cabin Conditioning And Pressurisation Flashcards
Pressure controller ensures the cabin alt is reached at the same time as cruise alt is reached
By setting a rate of climb
In a bootstrap system the cooling air is
RAM air
If the forward oil seal fails then the cabin air
Will be contaminated
In a bootstrap system air is cooled
By expanding the air over the turbine and driving the compressor
Heat exchanger cools the air by
Using ram air feed from the Naca duct
Light aircraft ac system -
Heat wrapped around exhaust and co detector is used in conjunction
Large aircraft ac systems use
Bleed air to supply the packs but they can also use electrically powered compressors
System requirements
18-24 degrees Celsius
Co can’t exceed 1 part per 20000
How does bleed air get to the conditioning pack
Isolation valve
If cabin oressur falls below the atmospheric pressure
Pressure relief valences open inwards to allow airflow
The purpose of outflow valves with regards to pressure in the cabin
They dump excess air
During a cruise the outflow valves remain
Partially open
