What is the magnito? |
A magnito is a special type of engine driven AC generator that uses permanent magnet as a source of energy the magnito develops a high voltage which is used to fire the spark plugs |
|
What is the purpose of the condenser in a high tension Magneto electrical system |
To prevent parking at the points and to haston the collapse of the magnetic field around the primary coil |
|
Where is the Egap position in the magneto ? |
When the rotating magnet is a few degrees past the neutral position |
|
What are the 3 major circuits of a high tension magnito system? |
The magnetic circuit the primary electrical circuit and the secondary electrical circuit |
|
What are the components of a high tension magnetic circuit? |
The magnetic circuit consists of perminent multi Pole vault eating magnet a soft iron and pole shoes |
|
What happens when the primary breaker points open in the magnito? |
Na |
|
What is the piston position on the spark occurs in a cylinder? |
The position is a specified number of crankshaft degrees before top dead center on the compression stroke |
|
What is a dual Magneto Ignition system? |
Na |
|
What is the difference between a low tension in a high tension Ignition system |
Na |
|
When the admission switches in the off position what is the condition of the primary circuit? |
It is completed through the Ignition switch to ground |
|
In ado Magneto Ignition system what part of the system is grounded when they mission switches place in the right position? |
Turn left magnito circuit will be grounded |
|
What is internal timing of a magnito? |
It is adjusting the breaker points to open when the rotating magnet is at that E gap position |
|
What is the purpose of an impulse coupling used with the magnito? |
It is to speak the magnito rapidly to produce a hot spark for starting the engine and at the same time r***** the timing of the spark |
|
What is staggered Ignition timing? |
It is the phone of one spark plug before the other |
|
What is the proper spark plug reach? |
The proper spark plug reach is when the electro end of the plug inside the cylinder is in the best position to achieve Ignition |
|
What type Ignition system is used in most turbine engines? |
electronic capacitor type Ignition system |
|
What is the function of the igniter plugs in a turbine engine? |
To provide a discharge gap for the current which is stored in the capacitor that this charge results in a high intensity spark which ignites the fuel air mixture |
|
When I turbine engine Ignition systems normally in use? |
For starting or restarting an engine |
