Mis. Flashcards
FUEL SYSTEM consists of
consists of two interchangeable crashworthy tanks, self sealing fuel lines, firewall mounted selector valves, prime boots pump and fuel tanks, engine drive pumps, quantity gauging and low level warning system
Fuel travel path
Pumps Fuel Filter HMU Liquid to Liquid cooler ODV Nozzels
How much fuel is unusable
360 lbs gravity
359 pressure
356 closed circuit
fueling psi limits
gravity - none
pressure 300 gpm, 55 psi
closed circuit 110 gpm, 15 psi
when does fuel low come on
172 lbs of fuel
What does the LDI do
negative pressure
pump or lines
fuel boost can isolate leak or make it worse
MMU - collective to pitch
compensates for rotor downwash
collective increases provides fwd input
aft input if collective decreases
MMU - collective to roll
compensates for translating tendency
left lateral input when collective increases
right lateral input when collective decreases
MMU - collective to yaw
compensates for changes in torque effect
increases tail pitch as collective increases
decreases tail pitch as collective decreases
MMU - Yaw to Pitch
compensates for vertical thrust
aft input as tail rotor pitch increases
fwd input as tail rotor decreases
Collective / airspeed to yaw (electronic coupling)
Compensates for torque effect function of SAS/FPS computer
decreases tail pitch as airspeed increases - and opposite
tail rotor pitch change is proportional to airspeed
0-40 maximum mixing
40-100 mixing decreases
100+ no mixing
TORQUE COMPENSATION
MMU
Electronic Coupling
Cambered Fin
changes to nominal pitch setting in tail rotor from 7.5 to 10
wind, PA, temp not considered
CAMBERED FIN
helps streamline fuselage as airspeed increases
tapers off as airspeed increases
AFCS
SAS 1 & 2, TRIM, FPS, Stabilator
provides oscillation dampening (dynamic)
maintains desired attitude, speed, and handling (static)
SAS
enhances dynamic stability by providing short term rate damping in the pitch
SAS 1 - analog
SAS 2 - digital
Both have 5% control if one fails remaining sas will double its gain and the control authority of SAS is reduced by one half
