B777 RR Trent 800 Series Power Plant Flashcards
(89 cards)
General: Which fan cowl has the chine installed?
Left and right engine inboard fan cowls.
General: At Idle power, what is the inlet suction hazard area extension?
15 feet (4.6m)
NOTE: At take off power is 27 ft (8.3m).
General: How is the gap of the fan cowls adjusted?
By adding or removing shims and latches tension mechanism (adjustable star).
T/R cowls should be adjusted first before adjusting fan cowl latches.
General: Which sensor probe is fitted to the inlet cowl?
P20/T20 probe.
General: Where does PDOS pump get power from?
Ground handling bus 28v dc for control and ground handling 115v ac (3 phases) for pump power.
Engine: How many turbine stages drive the fan?
5 LPT stages.
Engine: How many turbine stages drive the HPC?
Only one HPT stage.
Engine: Where are the trim balance weights fitted for the Fan at?
At the rear of spinner.
Engine: Where are the trim balance weights for the LPT?
At the blade tip of the last LPT stage (5th stage).
Engine: How do you turn the N3 compressor (HPC) for borescope inspections?
With the HP System turning tool attached to a drive squared accessed through the breather cover (removed) on the front of external gearbox module.
Engine: Which engine mount transfers thrust loads to the strut?
Rear engine mount does.
Fuel & Control: How is the Fuel HPSOV in the FMU directly controlled (hard-wired)?
By related fire handle.
Fuel Control Switches through ELMS and automatically by OPU if N1 or N2 have an over speed.
Fuel & Control: Which engine parameter is used for thrust calculation in RR Trent 800?
EPR, N1 is alternate.
Fuel & Control: When can the Control Alternator provide power for EEC operation?
N3 > 5%.
Fuel & Control: What does the HP Filter do?
It acts as a last chance filter for the metered fuel going to fuel nozzles to avoid nozzles from blockage. It is cleanable.
Fuel & Control: When does the controlling channel in EEC change over?
Every new start or a lane failure.
Fuel & Control: What happens if the OPU detects N1 or N2 overspeed?
Immediately shuts the engine down through HPSOV t/m.
Fuel & Control: How is the fuel flow in the fuel nozzles calibrated for their relative position around the engine?
By means of weight distributor valves inside fuel nozzles whose assure the fuel supply pressure between the top and bottom nozzles is equal.
Fuel & Control: What does the Control Alternator not directly power to?
Related EEC.
Fuel & Control: Which EDIU channel only transmits 629 and receive 429?
Center channel.
Fuel & Control: With the Engine Mode Switch indicating “ALTN”, what does it indicate?
EEC has had a reversionary event.
Fuel & Control: Where is the Data Entry Plug (DEP) attached to?
To the Electronic Unit Protection Box case with a lanyard.
Fuel & Control: Which fuel pump operates the ejector pump of the Drains Tank of the engine?
The Low Pressure Pump. The ejector pump removes fuel from the Drains Tank and sends it back to LP pump inlet.
Fuel & Control: What does the Autothrottle Servomotor brake do?
Moves the thrust lever and resolver at the same time and provides some friction (feel) to thrust levers.
