Q

By aerating the spray, the local (?) concentrations produced by other types of burner are avoided, thus giving a reduction in both carbon formation and exhaust smoke.

Q

An additional advantage
of the spray nozzle is
that the low pressures
required for (?)
of the fuel permits the
use of the comparatively
lighter gear-type pump.

This type of burner presents the fuel in the combustion system in the form
of a rich fuel vapour or gas.

Q

This is achieved by delivering the metered
flow of fuel to “J” shaped vaporising tubes, which protrude into the combustion chamber.

Q

The fuel and air is mixed thoroughly by (?) that protrude into the primary
airflow and the heat of the flame surrounding the tube causes the mixture to vaporise before it emerges in the combustion chamber.

9
Q

With this type of burner, the flame points towards the incoming airflow
and this helps to stabilise the flame in the vaporising tubes, preventing it being blown away by the secondary air, thus allowing a relatively short combustion system.

Q

Fuel Metering System
The advantages of this type are:

A

a. Pre-vaporising gives complete combustion within a short length of
flame tube.
b. A complete ring of flame around the annular chamber.
c. Even pressure and temperature around the chamber.

Q

The flow is directed to the check valve. During the (?) the solenoid is de-energised and the spring force closes the valve and the fuel flow to check valve is stopped.

Q

It is a spring-loaded
valve, which is closed at
rest and opens when fuel
pressure reaches a pre-
determined value.

A

Check Valve

17
Q

As vaporisers do not atomise the fuel sufficiently for combustion until they
become heated, for starting purposes initial heating during start is provided
by four jets, two of which are combined with (?).

A

High Energy Igniters

18
Q

The (?) ensure
that, even at the low
flows encountered
during start, the fuel is
atomised as required for
light up.

A

starter jets

19
Q

A (?) is fitted in the main gallery feed line.

A

Pressurising Valve

20
Q

It is spring-loaded which functions to build up and stabilise the metering system servo pressures before any flow to the main gallery.

A

Pressurising Valve

21
Q

Thereby it ensures the
correct delivery of fuel to the vaporisers during start.

A

Pressurising Valve

22
Q

The (?) connects with delivery tubes, each feeding one vaporiser head through a distribution orifice.

A

main gallery

23
Q

The (?) are fitted in pairs on the combustion chamber outer case.

A

24
Q

Fuel is mixed with air in the (?).

A

vaporiser tubes

25
Q

As the mixture passes
through the heated tube, the fuel becomes (?) so that it is delivered in combustible form.

A

26
Q

A (?) houses the check and pressurising valves.

A

single unit

27
Q

A purge flow tapped upstream the pressurising valve is connected to the
check valve via a (?).

A

purge restrictor

28
Q

This ensures a continued fuel flow
through the starter jets to avoid formation of carbon in this area.

30
Q

These demands are met by electronic engine controls, or EEC, of which
there are two types:

A
  1. Supervisory
  2. full-authority
31
Q

Advances in gas turbine
technology have
demanded more precise
control of (?) than cannot
be provided by hydro
mechanical fuel controls
alone.
