Engine Types
|
GE CF6-80C2
PW 4460 |
|
Engine Thrust
|
GE - 61,500 lbs
PW - 63,300 lbs |
|
Thrust set by EPR or N1?
|
GE - N1
PW - EPR |
|
Engine Ignition receives power from what buses?
|
IGN A - L EMER BUS
IGN B - R EMER BUS |
|
Selecting Engine Ignition ON does what?
|
Start switch is armed
Hydraulic EDP test is armed Ignition is armed Packs are closed for 2 minutes APU goes to 100% |
|
Ignition Armed (AUTO) engages ignition ON when...
|
Starting - Fuel Switch ON
Takeoff - Throttle >70% till slats retract Landing - slats, flaps OR gear down to 1 min after ground shift Engine Anti-ice ON (for 1 min after switches turned on) |
|
Engine Start Switch activation does what?
(4 items) |
Start valve opens
FADEC powered Boost Pump ON (respective tank AFT pump) Instrument lines (EGT red line and N2 Fuel ON blue line) |
|
Fuel Switch activation ON does what?
(5 items) |
Ignition ON
Fuel valve OPENS Cargo Door Test (1st switch) Aux Pump 1 OFF (1st switch) Pitot Heat ON - (TAT on ground shift) |
|
Approach IDLE is active when...
|
Engine Anti-ice ON
and/or Slats / Flaps Extended |
|
What is FADEC?
How is it powered? |
Full Authority Digital Engine Control
PMA (permanent magnetic alternator) - Driven by N2 Note - 2 separate windings. Each provides power to its respective FADEC channel. |
|
What happens when the FADEC PMA or BOTH channels fail?
|
28V DC backup (some planes), otherwise,
controlled engine shutdown |
|
FADEC functions (7)
|
Minimum approach/idle speeds during descent
Compressor airflow control Thrust control as function of throttle position Acceleration / Deceleration limiting Starting (accel to idle) Auto control of available thrust Protections (N1, N2, Internal pressure, max thrust limits) |
|
FADEC goes to ALTN (alternate) due to...
|
N1 signal loss
Boost bar (thru) CADC inputs lost |
|
SELECT
------------ ALTN (switch) |
Both lights on = SOFT mode
(both CADC inputs to both channels lost, last CADC input used to calculate thrust) Press swich for SELECT to extinguish = ALTN or HARD mode (internal, fixed schedule to determine thrust. ISA+30, may cause increase in thrust) PW autothrottles INOP ALTN light only = Overboost bar |
|
Throttles through the Overboost Bar does what?
|
ATS Disconnect
MAX Emergency Thrust ALTN Mode on FADEC |
