Describe the low pressure rotor

Single-stage wide-chord fan, two-stage axial LP compressor, driven by two-stage axial flow LP turbine, attached to LP shaft to form LP rotor assembly

What protects the LP rotor

OSP, Overspeed protection system

What are the overspeed protection systems on the LP turbine

Mechanical system in case of LP shaft failure

How does Electronic overspeed Protection work

FPMU and PMA energize HP shutoff valve to close, cuts off fuel

How does mechanical LP shaft separation protection system work

Bell crank pushes back on shutdown solenoid, high pressure shutoff valve (HPSOV) closes in Fuel pressure management unit (FPMU), engine shuts down.

What is the high pressure (HP) rotor?

Single stage centrifugal compressor, single-stage HP turbine, on the HP shaft, bevel gear drives accessory gear box.

What protects HP rotor

Electronic overspeed protection system

How does electronic overspeed protection system work

Signal from speed sensor in FPMU and signal from PMA energizes solenoid for HP shutoff valve, cuts fuel

What is the thrust link

Steel link between mount yoke and forward pylon spar

What does the thrust link do?

React thrust into the spar without bending loads into the yoke

Define FPMU

Fuel Pressure Metering Unit

Define PMA

Permanent Magnetic Alternator

How to perform dry motor.

Spin motor without fuel, no igniters

How to perform wet motor

Spin motor with fuel, no igniters

What would wet motor be used for

Leak checks, removal from preservation, priming of fuel system

What would dry motor be used for

AGB operation, lube pump operation, oil leaks, fuel leaks, rotation of engine rotors, engine indications, remove unfurled fuel from hot section.

List low pressure fuel system components in order that fuel flows through them

FPMU fuel inlet, booster pump, fuel/oil heat exchanger, fuel filter/bypass valve, fuel filter differential pressure sensor, fuel filter bypass valve

Describe FADEC power supplies

battery bus or PMA through PMA rectification and diode “OR” gate, whichever voltage is higher

What section of FPMU controls whether motive flow is available

Ecology valve

Allowable fuel system maintenance.

R/R FPMU, R/R fuel oil heat exchanger, filter change, replace/rig bleed valve cables, rig/replace overspeed protection cable, replace differential pressure sensor

List FADEC protective functions during start

Hot start protection, ignition loss, hung start, no N1 rotation.

How do N1 and N2 sensors work

Sensing magnetic fields/frequency

How is ITT measured

T5 probes, EGT and cold junction temperatures.

How many T5 probes

8 total. 4 channel A, 4 channel B

Where is ITT measured

Exit of high pressure turbine and inlet of low pressure turbine

Describe N1 sync system

Sets N1 commands for both engines to be the same, left engine is master, right is slave.

What other system relies on N1 sync.

Cruise speed control

All scavenge oil must flow through which component

Chip detector

Describe FOHE

Pulls heat from oil into fuel

What are indications of FOHE malfunctions

Rising oil level indicates fuel leak, oil smells like fuel, oil temp increase

Which bearings are ball type bearings

No 1 and No 2, forward engine

Is FADEC protection available in flight

No

Describe how each FADEC channel controls the igniters

Channel A/B, each channel controls both igniters randomly

Describe engine shutdown sequence on ground

Throttle levers to cutoff, overspeed shutdown solenoid is tested

How is overspeed shutdown solenoid tested.

ECU closes fuel metering valve, no more that two seconds after throttle pulled to cutoff

What is N2 sensor

Monitors engine core rotational speed

Where is N2 sensor

FPMU and PMA

What is N1 sensor

Senses fan speed

Where is N1 sensor

Mounted on the intermediate case (IMC)

What does N1 sensor monitor

Low pressure rotor shaft speed (fan speed)
