Flight hydraulics Flashcards
What is the purpose of the flight control hydraulic systems?
The No. 1 and No.2 flight control hydraulic systems convert pilot mechanical inputs into hydraulic inputs
Each system can individually provide the fluid pressure to operate…
one of the pistons on each of the four dual upper boost actuators and half of each of the four integrated lower control actuators (ILCAs).
When can the hydraulic fill module be used to add fluid to the hydraulic systems?
can be used on the ground or in flight.
What is the purpose and location of the no.1 and no.2 flight hydraulic reservoir/coolers and fans?
hold and cool fluid, forward and aft pylon
What is the temperature range of the hydraulic fluid when the hydraulic cooling fans will operate?
54-63 degrees celsius
What is the purpose and location of the no.1 and no.2 flight hydraulic power transfer units?
provides hydraulic pressure to respective flight system while blades aren’t turning, forward and aft pylon
What is the purpose and location of the no.1 and no.2 flight hydraulic pumps?
provide hydraulic pressure once blades are turning, on the forward and aft transmissions
What is the purpose and location of the no.1 and no.2 flight hydraulic power control modules?
filters, monitors, and controls pressure fluid for respective systems. fore and aft pylon
The Lower Control Pressure Control Modules reduce pressure from ?????? to ?????, for the ?????? of the ILCA and the ??????? portion of the ILCA.
3,000 to 1,500 PSI, boost and extensible link portion
Which portion of the ILCAs is the no.1 side and which is the no.2 side?
no.1 is upper, and no. 2 is lower
What must be done if a JAM indicator is found extended on pre-flt?
notify maintenance
What is the purpose and location of the upper dual boost actuators?
Each actuator is mounted to the swashplate and will hydraulically move the swashplate based off of inputs received from the pilots and/or the AFCS
Are there any buttons on the upper dual boost actuators that must be checked during pre- flt?
Yes
How can you determine which portion of the reservoir/cooler is the cooler and which part is the reservoir?
the reservoir is the drum and the cooler is the sheave with a fan
What should be checked on pre-flt on the reservoir?
check fluid level and that green band is visible
