Single Fault Tolerant

22
Q

Purpose of Accumulator in Hydraulic Braking System?

A

To provide an emergency reserve

23
Q

Frequency from RPM and Pole Pairs equation?

A

F(Hz) = (RPM/60) * Pole Pairs

24
Q

Impulse Turbine - Pressure / Velocity across Nozzle Guide Vane (NGV)?

A

Pressure drops - Velocity increases (needed to optimise impulse reaction with Impulse blade

25
Impulse Turbine - Pressure / Velocity across Blade
Reduce velocity no reduction in pressure
26
Purpose of Oil in Oleo Pneumatic Strut?
Dampening and Recoil | Oil is Damp!
27
Low pressure fuel pump in transport aircraft is typical a __________ pump.
Centrifugal pump (AC 115v)
28
Fire discharge bottles per engine bay?
2
29
APU requirements for ETOPS?
Must be able to restarted at all altitudes during flight.
30
Best application of braking for Steel brake discs?
Frequent small applications (allows disc to cool). Opposite to Carbon
31
Detonation in Piston Engine caused by?
Anything that increases pressure or temperature of mixture
32
Purpose of Pressurising and Dump Valve in Gas Turbine Fuel System?
Return low pressure fuel to return, and pass high pressure fuel to burners (ensures high enough fuel pressure for atomisation)
33
Centrifugal Compressor Compression Ratio (per stage)
5:1
34
Impulse Reaction Turbine - Duct on Rotor?
Slightly convergent
35
Fuel Flow is measured at what location in the fuel system?
After the HP Valve (last point before engine)
36
Settings on Flight Dect Oxygen System
Normal, Emergency, Test, and 100% Oxygen
37
Constant Displacement or Axial Piston Pump requires an _________ and a __________.
Accumulator and Automatic Cut Out Valve (ACOV). The Constant Displacement Pump stroke is based on angle of piston body
38
Purpose of Blocking Valve during Engine Start on Variable Volume/Constant Pressure Pump?
To reduce load on starter - sets pump to zero output during engine start
39
Impact on Bleed Air (Charge Air) across Air Conditioning Pack (Bootstrap System)
Pressure drop and Temperature drop
40
S.G. of Discharged Lead Acid Battery
1.17
41
What is used to pressurise the Hydraulic Reservoir?
Engine Bleed Air
42
Constant Speed Prop maintains a constant....
Angle of Attack
43
Multi-Engine Variable Pitch Prop - Position if Oil Pressure Drops
Coarse (by spring on single acting actuator)
44
Fuel Booster Pump PSI?
LP Pump - 20-100PSI
45
Where is exhaust gas measured on gas turbine?
Output of HP Turbine
46
Start disconnection on gas turbine?
Centrifugal disconnect on N2
47
Which spool is N2?
HP Spool
48
Temperature Limited (instead of Thrust Limited) When
High OAT
49
Actual Thrust Limits on Gas Turbine Engines
Max Take-Off (Time Limited) Max Continuous Go-Around Max Climb
50
Inlet valve on Piston engine during compression stroke?
Open at first (BDC)
