Troubleshoot And Repair Turbine Engine Electrical Flashcards
What are three types of flow-indicating systems used for turbine engines?
Vane-type flow meters, synchronous mass-type flow meters and electronic motor less flow meters
What do mass flow systems measure?
The mass of the flow. This is affected by the density of the fuel which is in turn affected by the fuel temperature
In what units is an electronic motor less mass flow meter system calibrated?
Pounds per hour of fuel flow
What is indicated in a turbine engine if the fuel flow for all conditions is high?
If there are other instrument abnormalities there are possibly damaged components
Who is authorized to repair a fuel flow indicating system?
The components can be repaired only by an FAA approved repair station certificated for the particular instruments
Where can you find the electrical power requirements for a fuel flow indicating system?
In the aircraft maintenance manual
Where in the fuel system is the fuel flow transmitter located?
Between the fuel control and the fuel nozzles
