AHRS Flight Support Systems

A

AHRS for aviation and general aviation are small solid-state systems integrating a variety of technology such as low cost inertial sensors, rate gyros, and magnetometers, and have capability for satellite signal reception.

27
Q

Air Data Computer

A

An aircraft computer that receives and processes pitot pressure, static pressure, and temperature to calculate very precise altitude IAS, TAS, and air temperature.

•Computes the difference between the total pressure and the attic pressure and generates the information necessary to display the airspeed on the PFD.
•Outside air temperatures are also monitored and introduced into various components within the system.
•Altitude information is derived from the static pressure port just as an analogue system does.
•However the static pressure does not entered a diaphragm.
• The ADC computes received barometric pressure and sends a digital signal to the PFD to display the proper altitude readout.

28
Q

Magnetometer

A

Heading information is derived from a magnetometer that senses the earths lines of magnetic flux. This information is then processed and sent out to the PFD to generate heading display.

29
Q

How Does A fuel Injected System Work?

A

•The auxiliary fuel pump provides fuel under pressure to the fuel-air control unit for engine starting and/or emergency use.
•After starting, the engine driven pump provides fuel under pressure from the fuel tank to the fuel-air control unit.
•This control unit meters fuel based on the mixture control setting and sends it to the fuel manifold valve at a rate controlled by the throttle.
•After reaching the fuel manifold valve, the fuel is distributed to the individual fuel discharge nozzles.
•The discharge nozzles which are located in each cylinder head, inject the fuel-air mixture directly into each cylinder intake port.
