Systems 2 - Engines Flashcards
There are two components to control the engines. The specific engine either has a _____ og an _____?
DEC , EDECU
DAS is short for?
Discrete Application Selection plug
Regarding the Tempaerature tape on the engine, _____ is good, ____ is bad
2 , 3
HMU is short for:
Hydro Mechanical Unit
PAS is short for:
Power Available Spindle
LDS is short for:
Load Demand spindle
What is the purpose of DEC/EDECU?
Limit the pilots load by:
(a) Maintaining a constant power turbine speed of 100%.
(b) Turbine Gas Temperature limiting, (limits the TGT to 879°C ± 9° or 903°C ± 10°)
(c) Load sharing (which keeps the torques of both engines matched within 5%),
(d) Power turbine overspeed protection (limits the power turbine speed to 120 ±1%)
HSP is short for? - And what does it do?
Hot start Preventer
Shuts down the engine in case of temperature getting to high during start up
What is the HMU?
A fuel control unit, controls fuel to the combustion system.
What is the funtion of the PAS?
The spindle changes linear cable movements into rotary inputs for the HMU
What is the function of the LDS?
This mechanical link between the collective and the HMU makes fuel-scheduling adjustments in a proactive attempt to match engine power to rotor load.
The function of Power takeoff drive assembly
The power takeoff drive assembly drives a radial drive shaft that mechanically links the accessory gear box and NG.
IGV is short for:
Inlet Guide Vane
What is the function of the IGV?
Control the amount of air entering the engine
VG is short for:
Variable Geometry
What is the function of the VG aid in acceleration and prevent compressor stalls VG?
Aids in acceleration and prevent compressor stalls.
IPS is short for:
Inlet Particle Separator
LRU is short for:
Line Replaceable Units
“Any part that can be removed and replaced at unit level maintenance (AVUM) with another like part like:”
(a) Oil filter
(b) Oil pump
(c) Liquid to liquid cooler
(d) Fuel filter
(e) Alternator
ODV is short for:
Overspeed Drain valve
What is the function of the ODV?
Controls the fuel flow into the engines.
Reacts by shutting of fuel flow during an overspeed or hot start
The ENG POWER CONT lever is mechanically linked to the _____ through a cable.
The ENG POWER CONT lever is mechanically linked to the Power Available Spindle (PAS) through a cable.
What is theEngine Inlet Temperature (T2) used for?
(1) T2 is used by the HMU to compensate for changes in air temperature.
(2) Inlet air temperature information from the T2 sensor is also used for NG limiting.
NG is short for:
Gas Generator Speed
NP is short for:
Power Turbine Speed
Q is short for:
Torque
What section of the engine mechanically drives NR?
NP section
