Aileron and Rudder Trim Control Panel
Rudder Trim: AC motor repositions neutral point of rudder feel and centering devise
- changes runner trim indicator units left or right of neutral
- if no AC power you will see OFF on left side of indicator
- CAUTION: make use knob springs back to neutral prior to flight
Aileron Trim
- 2 switches must be used in tandem to make aileron trim activate
- No actual trim on ailerons, activating simply redefines neutral position of ailerons by providing constant input to PCU’s
- Aileron Trim switches also control spoiler mixer if enough aileron trim is used
- Hydraulic pressure is required for trim activation
- CAUTION: do not use aileron trim with A/P on. Very high rolling forces upon disconnection of A/P.
STAB TRIM override switch
NORMAL - Normal ops of the control column cutout switches
OVERRIDE
- bypasses the column cutout switches
- restores power to the stab trim switches
- control column trim switches will work regardless of control column position.
- If stab trim is jammed, your may be up against the column cutout switch (opposite force)
- Use STAB TRIM OVRD switch to enable use of main electric stab trim again.
Engines
Two CFM 56-7 engines.
Dual rotor, axial flow turbofan,
N1 rotor
- low pressure compressor and low pressure turbine.
N2
- high pressure compressor and high pressure turbine.
N1 and N2 are mechanically independent,
N2 drives the engine gearboxes.
Bleed-air powered starter motor is connected to the N2 rotor.
Dual channel electronic engine control (EEC) regulates each engine.
EEC monitors auto-throttle and Flight Deck Crew Inputs to automatically set engine thrust.
Electronic Engine Control
EEC
Full authority digital EEC.
Two independent control channels with automatic transferring if one fails.
With each start attempt EEC alternates between channels.
EEC uses thrust lever input to automatically control forward and reverse thrust
N1 is used by EEC to set thrust in two control modes. Normal and alternate
Manual selection of the control mode can be made with EEC switches on the engine panel
EEC normal mode
Normal mode EEC uses sensed flight condition and bleed air demand to calculate N1.
EEC compares commanded N1 and adjusts fuel flow to achieve the commanded N1
Full thrust is available at a thrust lever position less then fuel rated take off
Fixed or assumed temperature derated takeoff thrust rating are set at thrust lever positions less than full rated takeoff.
Max thrust is available at forward stop.
EEC limits thrust according to aircraft models.
B737-700 CFM 56-7B24
B737-800 CFM 56-7B27
EEC Alternate mode
EEC has two alternate modes. Soft or hard.
If required signals do not allow normal mode. EEC automatically switches to soft alternate.
EEC ON light
Uses last valid flight conditions to define engine parameters. Causes no immediate change in thrust. Thrust ratings might occur as flight conditions change. Soft alternate will remain until manually selecting ALTN on the EEC switch.
Hard alternate is equal to or greater than normal thrust settings at the same thrust lever setting.
Soft alternate mode the ON indication remains visible. The ON light is blanked in hard alternate.
Structural limit protection
EEC provides N1 and n2 redline overspeed protection in both normal and alternate modes. The EGT must be observed by the crew because the EEC does not provide EGT redline exceedance protection.
Idle Operation
EEC automatically selects ground minimum idle, flight minimum idle and approach idle.
In Approach Idle, The height percent RPM improves engine acceleration time in the event of a go-around. Approach idle is maintained until 2 seconds after touchdown, when ground idle is selected.
In flight if a fault prevents the EEC from receiving flap or ain’t-ice signals approach idle schedule beings below 15,000 ft MSL.
