Q6 Turbo Charging Flashcards
An aircraft fitted with an altitude boosted turbocharger;
Select one:
1.Is only able to take off at altitude.
2.Will not produce more power when taking off at sea level.
3.Will produce more power at take-off than a normally aspirated engine.
4.Can’t work unless the throttle is fully open.
2.Will not produce more power when taking off at sea level.
When without moving the throttle and climbing, the MAP cannot be maintained, you have reached;
Select one:
1.Ventilation Limit
2.Turbine Limit speed
3.Full Throttle Altitude
4.Critical Altitude
4.Critical Altitude
When the current MAP can no longer be maintained even with the throttle fully open;
Select one:
1.You can increase MAP by reducing the throttle.
2.The Turbine must be over-sped
3.You are going to break it, stop it!!
4.You have reached full throttle height
4.You have reached full throttle height
A ground boosted turbo charger.
Select one:
1.Is fitted to a strengthened engine and provides up to ISA Sea Level MAP (29.95inHg) take off power.
2.Does not require a standard engine to be strengthened before fitting.
3.Can be fitted to any engine without modification.
4.Is fitted to a strengthened engine and is capable of providing more take off power than 29.95 inHg MAP at ISA sea level.
4.Is fitted to a strengthened engine and is capable of providing more take off power than 29.95 inHg MAP at ISA sea level.
How is it possible to increase Critical Altitude
Select one:
1.It’s only possible if a bigger turbo is fitted
2.By climbing at a reduced MAP
3.By reducing the height of the terrain flown through.
4.By climbing at a higher MAP
2.By climbing at a reduced MAP
What is the reason behind fitting an Inter-cooler to a turbocharged engine.
Select one:
1.It cools the air before the compressor to restore density
2.You can carry more beer in the cruise for your VIP passengers
3.It cools the exhaust gases making the turbo more efficient
4.It cools the air after the compressor and restores the density
4.It cools the air after the compressor and restores the density
If a normally aspirated piston engine is climbing and the MAP is maintained, the power output will;
Select one:
1.Increase
2.It is not possible to climb at constant MAP
3.Remain constant
4.Decrease
1.Increase
How do you reach Rated Altitude?
Select one:
1.By climbing at full throttle to critical altitude.
2.By flying 1st Class
3.By climbing at Rated Boost and Rated RPM.
4.By having a flat rated engine.
3.By climbing at Rated Boost and Rated RPM.
What are the benefits of turbo-charging?
Select one:
1.It gives all aircraft engines more power at take-off.
2.It allows any engine to maintain power as you climb and some engines to give increased take off power.
3.It gives greater take off power, but cannot give increased power in the climb.
4.It allows a bigger cooling and lubrication system to be fitted.
2.It allows any engine to maintain power as you climb and some engines to give increased take off power.
What is the purpose of the Compressor in a Turbo Charger?
Select one:
1.To divert waste gases away from the normal exhaust outlet.
2.To absorb energy from diverted waste gases and drive the compressor.
3.To produce air for the turbo fan
4.To compress air which is supplied to the engine.
4.To compress air which is supplied to the engine.
Which statement best describes how you operate the Throttle and RPM controls in a turbocharged variable pitch propeller aircraft?
Select one:
1.Throttle up, Rev back.
2.Rev up, throttle back.
3.Blue Bottle Hit the Throttle
4.FMAAAA
2.Rev up, throttle back.
When the throttle is opened on a turbo charged engine, it may take a little time to reach full power, this is called;
Select one:
1.Waste Gate delay
2.Ru Paul effect
3.Turbo Lag
4.Turbine Drag
3.Turbo Lag
What is the purpose of the Turbine in a Turbo Charger?
Select one:
1.To absorb energy from diverted waste gases and drive the compressor.
2.To divert waste gases away from the normal exhaust outlet.
3.To compress air which is supplied to the engine.
4.To produce air for the turbo fan.
1.To absorb energy from diverted waste gases and drive the compressor.
What is the purpose of the Waste Gate in a Turbo Charger?
Select one:
1.To divert waste gases away from the normal exhaust outlet.
2.To produce air for the turbo fan.
3.To absorb energy from diverted waste gases and drive the compressor.
4.To compress air which is supplied to the engine.
1.To divert waste gases away from the normal exhaust outlet.
What is the purpose of the Waste Gate Controller in a Turbo Charger?
Select one:
1.To compress air which is supplied to the engine.
2.To absorb energy from diverted waste gases and drive the compressor.
3.To monitor pressure in the manifold to the throttle and move the waste gate.
4.To divert waste gases away from the normal exhaust outlet.
3.To monitor pressure in the manifold to the throttle and move the waste gate.
