Q

T TANK MODE - FWD

A

(What do you need for a forward transfer??? Open 2, close 2, 1 x pump, no overflow protection to CTR.)

(TATA-PN)

Initiates a manual forward transfer to the centre tank.

By opening 2 valves:
TT ISOL valve, (TTI)
AUX FWD XFR valve. (AFT)

By closing two valves:
TP ISOL valve, (TPI)
AFT XFR valves. (AT)

AND…..
- TT FWD XFR pump operates.
- No overflow protection to centre tank overflow

Q

AFT transfer STOPS when:

A

AFT - A Fast Train STOPS in:
Chang Mai (CHIT-MAI)

  • CG = Target -0.5 % , or
  • Trim tank high level sensor wet, or
  • Inners 6 250 kg, or
  • T TANK MODE pb FWD, or
  • Manual transfer from the centre or outers to inners, or
  • Automatic transfer from centre to inners.
  • If inner tanks unbalanced by > 500 kg, the transfer will stop on the lightest side, and related AFT transfer valve will automatically close until fuel balance is restored.

L(R) CTR TK - FAULT
**PTMO** - pressure, failed open, manual, outer/inner 1. **Pressure drops**, or 2. **TP ISOL valve failed open**, or 3. **Manual transfer from center tank required** (failure of automatic transfer) and **both INNERS > 17 000 kg**, or 4. **One outer** or **one inner inlet valve** is **failed open** and **both INNERS** are **> 17 000 kg**. It is inhibited when OFF position is selected.
26
To keep it simple... what does AUTO mean on the FUEL pb's?
**FCMC controls the respective transfer** except..... >>> T TANK FEED....... * **Stops FWD XFR** when **Trim Tank** is at **low level**, to maintain the **TT transfer line full**. * Why??? APU is supplied with fuel through the trim tank transfer line.
27
Class E Main Cargo Compartment by regulations:
Class E fire protection relies on oxygen starvation by aircraft depressurization. 1. **Smoke detection** system 2. **Smoke barrier** 3. **Fire suppression** system 4. **Ventilation** - smoke and crew oxygen requirements
28
Class **C** **C**argo **C**ompartment by regulations:
Class C fire protection relies on detecting the fire early and suppressing it for the duration of the flight 1. **Smoke detection** system 2. **Smoke barrier** 3. **Fire extinguishing** system
29
Big picture with the T Tank area of the OHP FUEL section?
Responsible for manual FWD transfers. 1. Feed is for valve manipulation 2. Mode is to command the transfer
30
Explain the fuel transfer system:
1. CENTRE to INNERS. * AUTO TXFR cycles fuel between **FULL** and **2 000 kg below full** 2. TRIM to INNERS. * AUTO TXFR FWD and AFT to **optimise CG** 3. OUTERS to the INNERS. * Auto TX cycles fuel between **3 500 kg** and **4 000 kg**

How is fuel transferred FWD if the FWD transfer pump fails?
FWD XFR occurs by **GRAVITY**. The FCMC: ‐ **Inhibits** the FWD XFR by closing the TRIM PIPE ISOL VALVE, when aircraft **pitch exceeds 3.4 °** for **> 1 minute**. ‐ **Restarts** the FWD XFR, when the aircraft attitude is **lower than 3.4 °** for **> 1 min**.
59
What are the in-flight fuel requirements from CH16?
(T-CHAFF) * Trip Fuel to proceed to a Category A or B Airport; * Contingency Fuel; * Holding Fuel, when required; and * Arrival or Approach Allowance; * Final Reserve Fuel; * Fuel, if necessary, to meet other mandated fuel requirements, e.g. CDL/MEL requirements.
60
What must you have at the EEP before passing?
* Two-way communications with ATC; * Two-way communications with Flight Dispatch; * In-flight Fuel Requirement met; * No serviceability issues with the aircraft * NOTAMS and messages for the relevant EDTO Alternates have been reviewed; * EDTO Alternate(s) useability and weather, via an updated weather forecast
61
What is a significant systems failure?
*ELFOO* * **Engine failure**; * **Land ASAP** on ECAM * Increased **fuel consumption** exceeding available reserves * Only **one generator** remaining * Only **one main generator** remaing and **GREEN system affected** * Any **other situation** presenting **adverse safety** on flight (eQRH CPS)
