8 Cards in this Set
- Front
- Back
Air conditioning |
- utilize heat exchangers and expansion turbine to reduce hot bleed air to just above 0°C |
|
Fuel system - capacitance measurement |
- remains accurate through all phases of flight - auto adjusts for temp and press - gauges show weight, not volume - temp measurement may be on separate gauge |
|
Anti-skid |
- speed of wheel measured by transducer in axel and compared to reference speed - if ref speed > transducer, skid detected and system commands brake release - when skid corrected, brake press allowed to inc Touchdown protection - allows wheel to spin up on touch down to obtain reference speed before comparison to transducer Lock wheel/crossover protection - allows computer to take a ref speed from another wheel in event it loses a ref speed |
|
ECAM/EICAS |
Provides 1) engine/warning display 2) system/status display 3) provides system recovery procedures |
|
FODS |
- single element fenwal - salt like ceramic core in single element system alters its electrical resistance when exposed to inc temp - drop in resistance of core allows current to flow and trigger warning Ex: fire protection |
|
Pressurization |
- obtained by controlling amount of air exausted out of outflow valves - negative press relief valve and over press valve both controlled by outflow valve - best way to remove smoke is to raise cabin alt (opens o/f valve) |
|
Hydraulic accumulators |
Absorb system shock/surge and store energy Accumulator gauge = system pressure when hydraulic system ON |
|
Fuel jettison system |
- type cert req - must be able to jettison fuel w/in 15mins (operable during all conditions) - allows fuel for climb SL - 10000 + 45mins cruise - |
