21
Q

What’s the purpose of helical cut teeth in a planet gear?

A

Allows them to transmit in a increasing axial thrust

22
Q

What does the electronic torque meter use?

A

2 concentric shafts between the engine and gearbox

23

A

Units from 0 to 6

26
Q

EVMU?

A

Engine Vibration Monitoring Unit

27
Q

How do vibration sensors work?

A

By delivering an electrical signal to a computer

28
Q

What type of sensor is a vibration sensor?

A

Accelerometer

29
Q

How many vibration sensors are there on each engine?

A

2

30
Q

Where are the vibration sensors located on the engine?

A

In the compressor area
In the turbine area

31
Q

Fuel flow to the engines is shown in what?

A

Kg per hour

32
Q

Fuel used since engine was started is shown in what?

A

Kg per hour

33
Q

What does fuel flow indication allow you to do?

A

To monitor the performance and economic operation of the engines

34
Q

When does the fuel used indication automatically reset?

A

When master switch is switched to on and a/c on ground

35
Q

What calculates fuel?

A

FADEC

36
Q

What does the fuel flow transmitter measure?

A

Mass of fuel flow between fuel control unit and fuel nozzles

37
Q

How does the fuel flow transmitter work?

A

By the fuel mass turning a turbine against a spring and the deflection angle is measured

38
Q

Do modern fuel flow transmitters need a electric motor?

A

No

39

41
Q

How does the oil pressure transmitter work?

A

By sense the pressure difference between the total oil pressure in supply line and vent pressure in the tank

42
Q

What are the 2 types of oil pressure transmitters?

A

Bourdon tube type
Strain gauge type

43
Q

What does the low oil pressure switch do?
