Indicating Flashcards
What type of indication are EPR an N1?
Thrust
What is the purpose of the secondary indication system?
System indications
Three types of analysis for engine trend monitoring
Thermodynamic
Mechanical dynamic
Oil consumption
Where would you find the EPR indication displayed?
Primary display
What is EPR and where is it sensed?
Engine pressure ratio
Sensed at inlet and turbine outlet
Why can EGT be used as the turbine temperature indication?
Because it is a constant ratio with the TIT allowing for easy calculations.
What engine oil system parameters are indicated in the cockpit?
Temperature
Pressure
Quantity
Engine vibration signals are part of what analysis system?
Mechanical
Why is a vibration signal filtered?
So the movement of the accelerometer can be sensed
How are N1 and N2 vibration signals detected?
Piezoelectric crystal
Accelerometer
What can be calculated from an integration of the fuel flow signal?
The product of fuel used
