Systems/Oral Questions Flashcards
What are the ac generators rated at
115/200 VAC 400 HZ APU
115/200 VAC 404-577 HZ ENG
What type of battery and voltage
Ni-Cad, 24 volt 27 amp hour
What do the inverters power
GPWS, FDR, CVR,
If you lose the L TRU what do you lose
Left utility bus
What happens in the DC system if a single AC gen
nothing, dc system can be supplied completely by one gen
“Batt mode only”
Loss of all TRU’s, only the batteries are powering the airplane
What powers the emergency lights
28 VDC emergency bus, if that’s also offline its powered by 3 batteries and will last for 10 min
What triggers the emergency lights to come on
Loss of the left main bus
What temp will the CRT’s be lost
110C you get a waring 115C they shutdown
When do the fuel boost pumps come on automatically
Condition lever moved to start, LH pump can be activated by the APU being started with the left engine not running, opposite engine running with crossed open.
Will losing the boost pump cause the engine to shutdown
No, the FPMU is capable of supplying the engine with sufficient fuel supply
What closes the firewall fuel valve
Condition lever to off or pulling the T handle
APU auto shut down in the air (3)
-Overspeed (108%)
-ESU Failure (electronic sequence unit)
-Failure of the speed signal
Auto Shutdown on the ground (8)
-ESU failure (electronic sequence unit)
-Loss of the speed signal
-APU fire
-Overspeed (108%)
-Over temp (712 degrees C)
-Low oil pressure
High oil temp
APU Autostart in flight
-Loss of an engine
-Powerloss -56%
Autostart on the ground (APU)
-Faulty WOW switch
-Landing gear circuit breakers being pulled
-Jacking the airplane
What type of engine is in the Saab
AE2100A
Shaft horsepower in MTOP and NTOP
MTOP: 4152
NTOP: 3738
What is APR
Automatic Power Reserve (APR), when armed will automatically increase the engine power output by approximately 11%
What is on the PMAD
FLAP
Powerplant mounted accessory drive (PMAD)
Fuel Pump Metering Unit
Lubrication pump
Air turbine starter
PMA (Permanent Magnet Alternator)
What’s on the GMAD
PEAPP
Prop high press oil pump/ovr speed
Engine driven hydraulic pump
AC Gen
PGB oil pump
PCU:(pitch control unit) non moving
Three parts of the engine
Power unit
Torque meter
PGB
Ignition System
Two igniters
PMA: powers FADEC and Exciter
Auto Relight
Shuts off engine if no light off in 8 sec
NG<56% no auto relight
Low Fuel temp
Comes on at <4 degrees at the engine
What powers FADEC
Primarily PMA, secondary 28 VDC
What does FADEC control
Fuel flow
Pitch of prop
Auto relight
ITT limiting
Overspeed protection (shutdown at 110 NG/111 NP
Communicates with opposite engine
Only one FADEC being used (A/B system)
How many FADECs
One system per engine, system has two separate boxes, dual channel
Override Switch for FADEC does what
“dumbs it down” only looks at fuel flow and NG. You would use this function if you were getting erratic uncommanded power changes
