Engine Mark Numbers


The V2500 engine has been designated the V because IAE was originally a five-
nation consortium. The V is the Roman numeral for five.
For easy identification of the present and all future variants of the V2500, Interna-
tional Aero Engines has introduced a new engine designation system.
All engines will retain V2500 as their generic name.
The first three characters of the full designation are V25, identifying each en-
gine in the family
The next two figures indicate the engines rated sea - level takeoff thrust. The
following letter shows the aircraft manufacturer.
The following letter shows the aircraft manufacturer.
The last figure represents the mechanical standard of the engine.
This system will provide a clear designation of a particular engine as well as a sim-
ple way of grouping by name, engines with similar characteristics.
The designation V2500 - D collectively describes, irrespective of thrust, all en-
gines for McDonnell Douglas applications and V2500 - A all engines for Airbus In-
dustrie.
Similarly, V2500 - 5 describes all engines built to the -5 mechanical standard, ir-
respective of airframe application.
The only engine exempt from this idents is the current service engine, which is al-
ready certified to the designated V2500-A1.
For example:
The V2500 - A1 engine is used on A320 and has only a 3 stage booster.

The D5 variant is now no longer in production, however the engine is still


extensively overhauled and re-furbished

The IAE V2530-A5 engine is flat rated.


The rated thrust can be obtained for a limited time up to an ambient temperature
of 30C otherwise engine operating limits can be exceeded.
To have a constant thrust at variable ambient conditions the engine RPM has to
be adjusted (regulated) to compensate the variying air density.
The Thrust parameter is EPR. In case this parameter is not available the N1 is
used as the Thrust parameter.

An access panel, as shown below, is provided to gain access to the three BIFUR-
CATION "C" duct latches and the "C" duct take up device (also called, Auxiliary
Latch Assembly).
The take up device is a "turnbuckle" arrangement which is used to draw the two
"C" ducts together. This is necessary to compress the "C" duct seals far enough
to enable the latch hooks to engage with the latch keepers.
The take up device is used both when closing and opening the "C" ducts.
The take up device must be disengaged and returned to its stowage bracket, in-
side the L/H "C" duct, when not in use.
Red Open Flags, installed on the C-Duct indicate that the Bifurcation latches
are open.

equipped with a red open indicator.
The open -indicator gets in view through a gap in the cowling (also when the thrust
reverser halfs are closed) to indicate a not propper closed reverser cowl.
Make sure that you position the front latch correctly against the front latch
open indicator while you pull the thrust reverser halves together with the
auxiliary latch assembly.(take up device) If you do not do this, the front latch
can get caught between the thrust reverser halves and the auxiliary latch as-
sembly and the hook can get damaged.

General
The powerplant drain system collects fluids that may leak from some of the engine
accessories and drives. The fluids collected from the power plant are discharged
overboard through the drain mast installed below the engine accessory gearbox.
The drain system comprises two sub-systems:
fuel drains
oil, hydraulic and water drains
The two sub-systems come together at the same drain mast.

Gas Path
A simplified view of the engine is shown below.
All the air entering the engine passes trough the inlet cowl to the fan.
At the fan exit the air stream divides into two flows:
the core engine flow
the by-pass flow

Core Engine Flow


The core engine flow passes trough the fixed inlet guide vanes to the L.P.
Compressor which consits of 4 stages on the V2500 - A5 engine, then to the H.P.
Compressor, the combustion section and the H.P. and L.P. turbines and finally ex-
hausts into the Common Nozzle Assembly (C.N.A.)

By-pass Flow
The fan exhaust air (cold stream) entering the by-pass duct passes through the
fan outlet guide vanes and flows along the by-pass duct to exhaust into the C.N.A.

Nacelle
The nacelle ensures airflow around the engine during its operation and also pro-
vides protection for the engine and accessories.
The major components which comprise the nacelle are:
the air inlet cowl
the fan cowls (left and right hand)
The "C" ducts which incorporate the hydraulically operated thrust reverser unit.
the Combined Nozzle Assembly (CNA)

Common Nozzle Assembly (CNA)


The core engine "hot" exhaust and the "cool" by-pass flow are mixed in the C.N.A.
before passing through the single propelling nozzle to atmosphere.

Front Bearing Compartment


The bearings No. 1, 2 and 3 are located in the front bearing compartment which is
at the center of the intermediate module 32.
The compartment is sealed using air supported carbon seals, and oil filled (hy-
draulic) seal between the two shafts. This seal is supported by 8th stage air.
Adequate pressure drops across the seals to ensure satisfactory sealing. This is
achieved by venting the compartment, by an external tube, to the de-oiler.

Gearbox Drive
The HP stubshaft, which is located axially by No 3 bearing, has at its front end a
bevel drive gear which provides the drive for the main accessory gearbox, through
the tower shaft.
The HP stubshaft separates from the HP compressor module at the curvic cou-
pling and remains as part of the intermediate case module.

Description
The drawing below shows details of No 2 and No 3 bearings.
A phonic wheel is fitted to the LP stubshaft, this interacts with speed probes to pro-
vide LP shaft speed signals (N1) to the EEC and the Engine Vibration Monitoring
Unit (EVMU) which is aircraft mounted.
The hydraulic seal prevents oil leakage from the compartment passing rearwards
between the HP and LP shafts.
No 3 bearing is hydraulically damped. The oil flow to the No. 3 bearing damper is
maintained at the full oil feed pressure whilst the rest of the flow passes through a
restrictor to drop the pressure. This allows larger jet diameters to facilitate flow tol-
erance control.
The outer race is supported by a series of eighteen spring rods which allow some
slight radial movement of the bearing.
The bearing is centralised by the rods and any radial movement is dampened by
oil pressure fed to an annulus around the bearing outer race.
The gearbox drive gear is splined onto the HP shaft and retained by No 3 bearing
nut.

NO 4 Bearing Compartment
The No 4 bearing compartment is situated in an inherently hostile, high tempera-
ture and pressure environment at the centre of the combustion section.
The bearing compartment is shielded from radiated heat by a heat shield and an
insulating supply of relatively cool air.
This supply of cooled 12th stage air (called "buffer air") is admitted to the space
between the chamber and first heat shield. The 12th stage air is cooled by fan air
via the buffer air cooler, located on the rear left hand side of the engine.
The buffer air is exhausted from the cooling spaces close to the upstream side of
the carbon seals, creating an area of cooler air from which the seal leakage is ob-
tained.
This results in an acceptable temperature of the air leaking into the bearing com-
partment.
Buffer air flow rates are controlled by restrictors at the outlet from the cooling pas-
sages.
The bearing compartment internal pressure level is determined by the area
of the variable scavenge valve. (called No 4 bearing scavenge valve and de-
scribed in the oil system). This valve acts as a variable restrictor in the com-
partment vent / scavenge line.
A drain hole is provided to indicate a possible leckage at the No 4 bearing
compartment. It is located in the exhaust at 5 o clock position (aft looking for-
ward)
12th stage air cooler (BUFFER AIR)
The No. 4 bearing compartment air cooler is installed on the turbine casing.
The exchanger is held by its coolant air duct flanges.

Rear Bearing Compartment Figure 9: Bearing No.5 Compartment


The rear bearing compartment is located at the center of the LP turbine module
(module 50) and houses No 5 bearing which supports the LP turbine rotor.
The compartment is sealed at the front end by an 8th stage air supported carbon
seal.
At the rear is a simple cover plate, with an 0- ring and a thermally insulated heat
shield, both secured by the same twelve bolts. Inside the LP shaft there is a small
disc type plug with an 0-ring seal, secured by a spring clip.
There are no air or oil flows down the LP shaft.
Separate venting is not necessary for this compartment because with only one
carbon seal the airflow induced by the scavenge pump gives the required pressure
drop across the seal.
The compartment is covered by an insulating heat shield.

Module 31 (Fan Module) In order to minimize the leakage of air between the fillers and the aerofoils, there
is a rubber seal bonded to each side of each filler.
Module 31 is the complete Fan assembly and comprises:
22 wide-cord, titanium shroudless hollow fan blades Fan Disc
22 annulus fillers The fan disk is driven through a curvic coupling which attaches it to the LP stub
the titanium fan disc shaft. The curvic coupling radially locates and drives the fan disk.
the front and rear blade retaining rings During manufacture of the fan disk, it is dynamically balanced by removal of metal
The blades are retained in the disc radially by the dovetail root. from a land on the disk.
Axial retention is provided by the front and rear blade retaining rings.
Blade removal / replacement is achieved by removing the front blade retaining ring
and sliding the blade along the dovetail slot in the disc.
The fan inner annulus is formed by 22 annulus fillers.

Nose Cone
The class-fibre cone smoothes the airflow into the fan. It is secured to the front
blade retaining ring by 18 bolts.
The nose cone is balanced during manufacture by applying weights to its inside
surface. The nose cone is unheated. Ice protection is provided by a soft rubber
cone tip.
The nose cone retaining bolt flange is faired by a titanium fairing which is secured
by 6 bolts.
Be careful when removing the nose cone retaining bolts.
Balance weights may be fitted to some of the bolts. The position of the
weights must be marked before removal to ensure they are refitted in the
same position.

Annulus Fillers
The blades do not have integral platforms to form the gas-path inner annulus
boundary. This function is fulfilled by annulus fillers which are located between
neighbouring pairs of blades. The material of the fillers is aluminium.
Each annulus filler has a hooked trunnion at the rear and a dowel pin and a pin at
the front. The rear trunnion is inserted in a hole in the rear blade retaining ring.
The front pins are inserted in holes in the front blade retaining ring.
The fillers are radially located by the front and rear blade retaining rings. Each filler
is secured to the front blade retaining ring by a bolt.

Inlet Cone
The Glass-fibre cone smoothes the airflow into the fan. It is secured to the front
blade-retaining ring by 24 bolts. A Fairing is attached to the front blade-retaining
ring by 6 bolts.
Balance weights must not be placed at these 6 bolt locations on the fairing.
The Nose Cone is balanced during manufacture by applying weights to its
inside surface.
The nose cone is un-heated. A soft rubber cone tip provides ice protection. As ice
builds up on the tip, it becomes un-balanced and flexes. This causes the ice to be
dislodged from the rubber tip and is then ingested by the fan before it has built up
to a significant mass. The Nose Cone retaining bolt flange is faired by a titanium
fairing which is secured by six bolts.
The arrangement is shown below.
Take care when removing the Nose Cone retaining bolts. Balance weights
may be fitted to some of the bolts. The position of these bolts with their re-
spective weights must be marked before removal, so as to ensure they are
refitted to the same position.A special tool is used to remove the Inlet Cone
to prevent it from damage as shown below.

Front Blade Retaining Ring


The Assembly is shown below.
The Front Blade Retaining Ring is secured to the Fan Disk by a ring of 36 bolts. A
second (outer ring) passes through the retaining ring and permits the individual se-
curing of the Annulus Fillers by 22 bolts.
Both these sets of bolts must be removed before attempting to remove the Front
Blade Retaining Ring.
After the removal of the 22 annulus filler securing bolts and all 36 retaining ring
bolts, it is possible to remove the front blade retaining ring by the use of 6 pusher
bolts being inserted into 6 threaded holes designed specifically for this purpose.
The fan blades and annulus filler positions are not identified. For this reason
it is important to identify and make a note of the original blade and annulus
filler positions prior to their removal.
When the Nose Cone is fitted, it is possible to identify the positions of blades num-
bers 1,2 and 3 by noting that the front blade retaining ring has etched on its outer
edge these blade number positions. These numbers are marked in a counter-
clockwise direction when viewing the engine from the front.
Having established the original positions of the blades it is important to number the
blades and their corresponding annulus filler by using an approved marker pen

Fan Blade Removal / Installation The moment weight of the fan blade is written on the root surface

Removal
The Nose cone is secured to the front blade retaining ring by 18 bolts. Figure 15: Fan Blade Profile
Be careful when removing the nose cone retaining bolts.
Balance weights may be fitted to some of the bolts. The position of these weights
must be marked before removal to ensure they are refitted to the same position.
The blade retaining ring is secured to the fan disc by a ring of 36 bolts. A second
(outer) ring of bolts passes through the retaining ring and screws into each of the
22 annulus fillers. Both rings of bolts must be removed before attempting to re-
move the front retaining ring. HONEYCOMB CORE

After all the securing bolts (22 + 36) have been removed the retaining ring can be
removed by srewing pusher bolts into the 6 threaded holes provided for this pur- CONVEX CONCAVE SKIN

pose.
Balance weights, if required are located on the retaining ring.
The fan blades and annulus filler positions are not identified. For this reason it is
important to identify the blade and annulus filler position, relative to the numbered
slots in the fan disc, before disassembly.
Remove the annulus fillers on either side of the blade to be removed.
The annulus fillers can be removed as follows:
lift the front end of the annulus filler 3 to 4 inches.
twist the annulus filler through about 60 deg counter - clockwise
draw the annulus filler forward to clear the blades
The blade to be removed can then be pulled forward to clear the dovetail slot in
the fan disc.

Installation
After the new blade and the annulus fillers are fitted, The front blade retaining ring
can be fitted.
The front blade retaining ring can only be fitted in one position which is determined
by tree off - set locating dowells on the fan disc.
When the retaining ring is fitted to the fan disc the lettet T, etched on the retaining
ring, identifies No 1 fan blade position.
Fan blade Inspection / repair are described in the AMM 72-31-11 Page block
800.

Annulus Fillers Make sure the plastic strip has a smooth surface and edges. If you use a
strip with a rough edge surface or edges, damage to the seal can occur.
After removal of the Front Blade retaining ring the Annulus Fillers can be removed Make sure that you do not break the plastic strip and leave pieces of it in the Fan.
as follows: Pieces of plastic can damage the rubber.
lift the front end of the Annulus Filler 3 to 4 inches
twist the Annulus Filler through about 60 degrees counter-clockwise
draw the Annulus Filler forward to clear the blades
Remove the annulus fillers on either side of the blade to be removed. The blade
to be removed can than be pulled forward to clear the dovetail slot in the fan disc.
Examine the outer surface of the Annulus Filler for cracks, nicks, dents and
scores.
Limits in the AMM can be applied to assess the damage for accept or reject.
If the surface coating of the annulus filler is damaged to the point of requiring a
repair the AMM has a procedure that allows this to be done.
AMM ref 72-31-11-300-010 gives comprehensive instructions as to the correct
procedure for repair
When re-fitting the Annulus Fillers, it is extremely important that correct
location of the Annulus Fillers into the Rear Retaining Ring is achieved.
If the Annulus Filler is not correctly installed, it is possible that when the
Front Retaining Ring is subsequently torque tightened in place onto the Fan Disk,
it may result in the deformation and displacement of the Rear Retaining Ring.
This could cause it to come into contact with the inlet housing of LP Compressor
Module

Reposition of the Annulus Filler Seals


During the installation of the Annulus Filler it is possible to cause the sealing strips
to be incorrectly seated.
If this were to be left uncorrected, it is possible that the Fan Blade would be dis-
placed slightly prevented from its normal radial operating position.
This in turn would cause the Fan Module to become un-balanced and vibration
levels for the engine could be exceeded.
The task referenced above documents the procedure to eliminate this.
The task requires a stiff plastic strip to be used to reposition the seals if they
rolled as shown in the diagram below.

Repair of the Fan Disk Rear Ramp


During the removal operation of a fan blade, it is possible to dislodge the rear ramp
from its location in the dove-tail slot in the fan disk.
Great care must be taken to inspect the fan disk and the security of the rear ramps,
as they play an important role in providing a firm fixing and support for the individ-
ual fan blades.
Should it be discovered that a rear ramp has become separated from the disk it
must be refitted/replaced and a full description of the task can be found in the
AMM task reference 72-31-12-300-010. This is summarised as follows:
Remove the stage 1 fan blade from the stage 1 fan disk assembly
Clean the disk and rear ramp bonding surfaces:
Hand abrade the disk and rear ramp bonding area, using a scotch brite pad
(material No. V05-126) or garnet paper (Material No. V05-017)
Swab degrease the disk and rear ramp bonding areas, using a clean lint-free
cloth made moist with methyl ethyl keytone (material No. V01-076)
Mating surfaces of the component must be scrupulously clean and contact
surfaces must not be touched by hand or otherwise contaminated. Bonding
must be carried out immediately following surface preparation
Bond the rear ramp to the disk:
Apply masking tape to the rear ramp. Using masking tape (Material No. V02-
019) Note! The masking tape is used in order to allow the engineer to hold and
place the rear ramp accurately in the dovetail slot. See diagram on next page.
Apply the adhesive to the disk and rear ramp bond areas. Use toughened
acrylic adhesive with initiator (Material No. V08-114) Use a small spatula or
trowel to apply the adhesive. Note The four pips on the rear ramp, are to en-
sure adequate thickness of adhesive is maintained between the mating surfac-
es. See diagram on next page.
Fix the rear ramp to the fan disk and remove the masking tape from the rear
ramp.
Use finger pressure to hold the rear ramp in position for three minutes.
Cure the adhesive for one hour at room temperature between 21 deg. C. and
25 deg. C.
Visually and dimensionally examine the bonded rear ramp.
Install the stage 1 fan blade to the fan disk assembly.

Aerodynamic control air flow within the cold air steam duct is achieved by 60
vanes manufactured in aluminium.
The vanes consist of 20 segments, each containing 3 vanes. Both sides of the
vanes are attached to the outer and inner platforms.
The outer platform is bolted to the fan case and the inner platform is pinned to the
outer shroud ring of the LP compressor stage 2.5 stator assembly.

Booster Stage Bleed Valve (BSBV)


The bleed valve mechanism is supported by the intermediate structure and the
outer ring of the stage 2.5 vanes.
Two actuating rods which are each motivated by actuators allow a axial motion to
the valve ring via 2 power arms.

The HP compressor has 10 stages. It utilises variable inlet guide vanes at the inlet
to stage 3 and variable stator vanes at stages 3, 4 and 5 The front casing, which
houses stages 3 to 6, is made in two halves which bolt together along horizontal
flanges.
It is bolted to the intermediate casing (module 32) at the front and to the outer cas-
ing at the rear.

Common Nozzle Assembly (CNA)


General
The mixed exhaust system collects two flows of air.
The first is the cold airflow, which is the fan bypass air.
The second is the hot airflow which comes from the engine core.
The mixed exhaust system is made up of the common nozzle exhaust collector
and the engine exhaust cone.
The common exhaust collector admits the hot and cold gas outflows. These
gas outflows then go out to the atmosphere through the common nozzle.
The nozzle forms a convergent duct which increases the speed of the mixed
gas to give forward thrust.
The engine exhaust cone forms the inner contour of the common nozzle ex-
haust collector. It is made of a welded inco 625 honeycomb perforated panel
for sound attenuation, an attachment ring and a closure panel.
Interface seals provide sealing between the exhaust collector, the thrust re-
verser and the pylon.
The cold airflow exhaust is part of the thrust reverser system described in 78-30-
00. When the thrust reverser operates, the cold and hot outflows divide, and go in
different directions.

Description and Operation
Distribution
The fuel supplied from aircraft tanks flows through a centrifugal pump (LP stage)
then through the Fuel Cooled Oil Cooler and then through a filter and a gear pump
(HP stage).
The fuel from the HP pump is delivered to the Fuel Metering Unit (FMU) which con-
trols the fuel flow supplied to the fuel nozzles (through the fuel flow meter and the
fuel distribution valve).
The FMU also provides hydraulic pressure to all hydraulic system external actua-
tors. These include the Booster Stage Bleed Valve actuators, Stator Vane Actua-
tor, ACOC air modulating valve and HPT/LPT Active Clearance Control valve. Low
pressure return fuel from the actuators is routed back into the fuel diverter valve.
The fuel diverter and return to tank valve enables the selection of four basic con-
figurations between which the flow paths of the fuel in the engine are varied to
maintain the critical IDG oil, engine oil and fuel temperatures within specified lim-
its. The transfer between configurations is determined by a software logic con-
tained in the EEC.

The filter element is installed in the lower housing of a fuel cooled oil cooler
(FCOC). The FCOC includes the following components:
a) A filter cap which has a pressure plate to keep the filter element in position
once installed. The filter cap of the FCOC also includes a fuel drain plug to
drain the fuel for maintenance purposes.
b) A filter bypass valve to let the fuel go around the filter element when it be

Fuel Filter Diff. Press. Switch


The fuel filter clog indication is provided on the lower ECAM display unit. When the
pressure loss in the fuel filter exceeds 5 plus or minus 2 psid, the pressure switch
is energized.
When the pressure loss in the filter decreases between 0 and -1.5 psid from the
filter clog energizing pressure, the pressure switch is de - energized which causes
the caution to go off.
The differential pressure switch signal is fed directly to the SDAC.

Fuel Distribution Valve Figure 3: FDV Location

General
The fuel distribution valve (FDV) subdivides scheduled engine fuel flow from the
fuel metering unit (FMU) equally to ten fuel manifolds, each of which in turn feeds
two nozzles.

Description
The fuel distribution valve is installed at the 4:00 oclock location, at the front
flange of the diffuser case.
The fuel distribution valve receives fuel through a fuel line from the fuel metering
unit. The fuel goes through a 200 micron strainer, and then into ten internal dis-
charge ports. The ten discharge ports are connected to the ten fuel manifolds.
Eight of the ten internal discharge ports in the valve are connected after an engine
shutdown.
Eight of the fuel manifolds are drained into the engine through the lowest fuel noz-
zle.
The two fuel manifolds which remain full help supply fuel for the next engine start.

Fuel Manifold and Tubes Figure 5: Fuel Nozzle

Description
The fuel manifold and fuel tubes consist of several single wall tubes which carry
fuel between components in the fuel system. Fuel supplied to the fuel nozzles is
carried by a large tube from the fuel metering unit to the fuel distribution valve. At
the fuel distribution valve the fuel supply is split and carried to twenty fuel nozzles
by ten manifolds.
Each fuel manifold feeds two fuel nozzles. Fuel pressure for actuating various
valves is supplied by small tubes from the fuel metering unit mounted on the fuel
pump.
All the brackets and tubings are fire proof.

Fuel Nozzle
General
The fuel nozzles receive fuel from the fuel manifolds. The fuel nozzles mix the fuel
with air, and send the mixture into the combustion chamber in a controlled pattern.

Description/Operation
There are 20 fuel nozzles equally spaced around the diffuser case assembly.
The fuel nozzles are installed through the wall of the case, and each nozzle is held
in position by three bolts.
The fuel nozzles carry the fuel through a single orifice. The fuel is vaporized by (%!43()%,$

Fuel Pump
General
The LP / HP fuel pumps are housed in a single pump unit which is driven by a com-
mon gearbox output shaft. A low pressure (LP) stage and a high pressure (HP)
stage provide fuel at the flows and pressures required for operation of hydrome-
chanical components and for combustion in the burner.
The unit consists of a LP centrifugal boost stage which feeds an HP single stage,
two gear pump.
The housing has provision for mounting the fuel metering unit (FMU).
The LP stage receives fuel from aircraft tanks through the aircraft pumps.
The LP pump is designed to provide fuel to the HP gear stage with the aircraft
pumps inoperative. After passing through the LP boost stage, fuel proceeds
through the fuel filter to the HP gear stage. A coarse mesh strainer is provided at
the inlet to the HP gear stage. This stage is protected from overpressure by a relief
valve. Exceeding flow from the gearstage pump is recirculated through the FMU
bypass loop to the low pressure side of the pump.

Fuel Metering Unit


The FMU is the interface between the EEC and the fuel system.
It is located on the dual fuel pumps unit, on the rear of the main gearbox, and is
retained by four bolts as shown below.
All the fuel delivered by the HP fuel pumps - which is much more than the engine
requires - passes to the F.M.U. The FMU, under the control of the EEC meters the
fuel supply to the spray nozzles. It also supplies HP fuel for the operation (muscle)
of a number of actuators. Any fuel supplied by the HP pumps which is not needed
for these two uses is returned, from the FMU to the LP side of the fuel system.
In addition to the fuel metering function the FMU also houses the:
Overspeed Valve
Pressure Raising and Shut Off Valve
The overspeed valve under the control of the EEC, provides overspeed protection
for the LP (N1) and HP (N2) rotors.
The Pressure Raising and Shut Off Valve provides isolation of the fuel supplies at
engine stop.
There are no mechanical inputs to, or outputs from the FMU.

Low Pressure Fuel Shut Off Valve body. The see/feel indicator gives an indication of the valve position without re-
moval of the fuel LP fuel valve.
The LP fuel - valve 12QM (13QM) is in the fuel supply line to its related engine.
The LP fuel - valve is usually open and in this configuration lets fuel through to its
related engine. When one of the LP fuel - valves is closed, the fuel is isolated from
that LP fuel valves related engine.
The LP fuel - valve is installed between the engine pylon and the front face of the
wing front spar (between RIB 8 and RIB 9).
Each LP valve has an actuator 9QG (10QG). The interface between the actuator
and the LP valve is a valve spindle. When the actuator is energized, it moves the
LP valve to the open or closed position. A V - band clamp 80QM(81QM) attaches
the actuator to the LP valve.
Each actuator has two motors, which get their power supply from different sourc-
es:
the 28VDC BATT BUS supplies the motor 1
the 28VDC BUS 2 supplies the motor 2.
If damage occurs to the electrical circuit, it is necessary to make sure that the
valve can still operate. Thus the electrical supply to each motor goes through a
different routing. The routing for motor 1 is along the front spar.
The routing for motor 2 is along the rear spar and then forward through the flap
track fairing at RIB 6.
The actuators send position data to the System Data - Aquisition C oncentrators
(SDAC1 and SDAC2). The SDACs process the data and send it to the ECAM
which shows the information on the FUEL page.

Component Description
The LP fuel - valve has:
a valve body
a ball valve
a valve spindle
a mounting flange.
The LP fuel - valve actuator has two electrical motors which drive the same differ-
ential - gear to turn the ball valve through 90 deg. The limit switches in the actuator

PRSOV Fuel Shut Off Control


The FADEC control system contains a fuel shut - off in the FMU, which acts
through a 2 position torque motor to close the pressurizing valve:
The fuel shut - off is direct-hardwired to the MASTER control switch.
This tourque motor operated PRSOV is powered by the 28VDC.
Loss of power supply does not lead to change the selected HP fuel shutoff

The cockpit command " OFF " has priority over the EEC command.

LP Fuel Shutoff Valve Control


The LP fuel shut-off system has two independent electrical control circuits for each
LP fuel - valve. They connect through a control relay to these related switches:
the ENG MASTER switch
the FIRE PUSH switch.
When the No. 1 ENG MASTER switch is set to ON, it disconnects a 28VDC supply
from the relay 11QG (HP FUEL SOV SOL P / B SW). The relay 11QG de - ener-
gizes and connects a 28VDC supply (through the ENG 1 FIRE PUSH switch) to
the " open " side of the LP fuel - valve actuator.
The actuator then opens the LP fuel - valve.
When the No. 1 ENG MASTER switch is set to OFF, it connects a 28VDC supply
to the relay 11QG. The relay energizes and connects a 28VDC supply (through
the ENG 1 FIRE PUSH switch) to the " close " side LP fuel - valve actuator. The
actuator then closes the LP fuel - valve.
If the ENG 1 FIRE PUSH switch is operated:
it disconnects the 28VDC supply to the " open " side of the LP fuel - valve ac-

Fuel Diverter & Return Valve " FDV SOLENOID DE - ENERGIZED " (MODE 4 or 5)

General Return to Tank Modes


The FDRV configuration allows four modes of operation according to electrical sig-
nals from the EEC (based on fuel and oil temperature measurements transmitted HMS Mode 1 (Normal Mode)
by thermocouples). This is the normal mode and is shown below. In this mode all the heat from the
engine oil system and the IDG oil system is absorbed by the LP fuel flows. Some

valves in the unit. The fuel flow changes with the position of the valves.
For example;
Thus, the fuel flow can be controlled through the FDRV and the EEC.
Low engine speeds.
Fuel Return Valve High HP fuel pump inlet temperature.
The EEC operates the dual-wound torque motor to control the servo pressure. In this mode the fuel/oil heat exchanger is operating as a fuel cooler.
This servo fuel pushes the main valve. The excessive heat is passed to the engine oil, the ACOC extracts the heat from
the oil that has been heated up by the hot fuel.
The pressure balance between two sides of the main valve (Valves C and D) gives
the direction and the speed of the valve movement. The ACOC modulating valve is fully open.
Then the valve changes the direction of the fuel flow and controls the metering port
area.

No Return to Tank Modes 3 and 5


HMS Mode 3
Mode 3 shown below is the mode that is adopted when the requirements for fuel
spill back to tank can no longer be satisfied i.e.
Engine at high power setting (below 25,000ft).
Spill fuel temperature above limits (100 deg C).
Tank fuel temperature above limits (54 deg C).
In this condition the burned fuel absorbs all the heat from the engine and I.D.G. oil
systems.
If however, the fuel flow is too low to provide adequate cooling the engine oil will
be pre-cooled in the air/oil heat exchanger, by a modulated air flow, before pass-
ing to the fuel/oil heat exchanger.
This is the preferred mode of operation, when return to tank is not allowed.

HMS Mode 5
Mode selected when system condition demand as in mode 3 but this is not permit-
ted because IDG oil temperature is excessive or return to tank is not permissible
due to the high return fuel temperature. The ACOC valve is fully open.
This mode is adopted if the conditions exist.
In case the oil temperature cannot be kept within the limits the FADEC sys-
tem will increase the engine speed (FAIL SAFE MODE OF OPERATION.

IDG Fuel Cooled Oil Cooler


The IDG oil cooler is installed at the left hand side on the fan case, near the FCOC.
The IDG oil cooler has two sets of inlet and outlet ports. One set of ports is used
for the flow of the fuel to or from the fuel diverter and return valve. The other set
of ports is used for the flow of oil from and to the IDG.
The hot scavenge oil which has been used to lubricate and cool the IDG, flows
from the IDG to the oil cooler.
As the oil goes through the oil cooler, the heat in the oil is transmitted to the fuel.
The cooled oil then returns to the IDG.
Two drain plugs are also installed in the oil cooler, one for the fuel and one for the
oil.

channel.
In the event of faults in both channels a pre-determined hierarchy decides
whitch channel is more capable of control and utilises that channel.
In the event of loss of both channels, or loss of electrical power, the systems
are designed to go to their failsafe positions.

Engine Limits Protection


General
The FADEC prevents inadvertent overboosting of the expected rating (EPR limit
and EPR target) during power setting.
It also prevents exceedance of rotor speeds (N1 and N2) and burner pressure lim-
its. In addition, the FADEC unit monitors EGT and sends an appropriate indication
to the cockpit display in case of exceedance of the limit.
The FADEC unit also provides surge recovery.

Overspeed
Overspeed protection logic consists of overspeed limiting loops, for both the low
and high speed rotors, which act directly upon the fuel flow command. Supple-
mentary electronic circuitry for overspeed protection is also incorporated in the
EEC. Trip signals for hardware and software are combined to activate a torque
motor which drives a separate overspeed valve in the fuel metering unit to reduce
fuel flow to a minimum value. The engine can be shut down to reset the overspeed
system to allow a restart if desired.

EPR Setting Requirements


EPR
The EEC uses closed loop control based on EPR or, if EPR is unoptainable, on
N1.
Under EPR control, the EPR target is compared to the actual EPR to determine
the EPR error.
The EPR error is converted to a rate controlled Fuel Flow command (FF) which is
summed with the measured fuel flow (FF actual) to produce the FF error.
The FF error is converted to a current (I) which is sent to the dual torque motor.
The torque motor repositions the Fuel Metering Valve (FMV) to change the fuel
flow.
The inputs required for EPR control are:
Ambient temperature (T amb)
Engine air inlet temperature (T2)
Altitude (ALT)
Mach number (Mn)
Throttle Resolver Angle (TRA).
Service Bleeds
It is possible to re-select the primary control mode (EPR) through the N1 mode P/
B switch following an automatic reversion to rated or unrated N1 mode.
If the fault is still present, the EEC will remain in its current thrust setting mode. If
the fault is no longer present, the EEC will switch to the primary control mode
(EPR). If the fault later reoccurs, reversion back to N1 mode (rated or unrated) will
result.

Rated N1 Setting Requirements


Rated N1
The loss of either the P2 or the P 4.9 signal will cause an automatic reversion to
the rated N1 closed loop control.
This is a alternate control mode which utilizes to control the thrust automatically.
It is a despatchable mode but autothrust is not available when operating in this
mode. The rated N1 mode can also be manually selected by actuating the related
N1 MODE P/B switch (one per engine) that is located on the overhead panel.
The inputs required for Rated N1 control are:
T2 and
the Throttle Resolver Angle (TRA).
The processing of the N1 error signal is the same as for EPR error signal.

A319/A320/A321 73-00 Fuel System Presentation

Unrated N1 Setting Requirements


Unrated N1
The loss of the T2 signal will cause automatic reversion to unrated N1 closed loop
control.
Max N1, N1 thrust lever, N1 mode and N1 raiting limit indications on the upper
ECAM are lost.
The input required for unrated N1 control is:
the Throttle Resolver Angle (TRA).
The unrated N1 thrust setting requires the thrust to be set manually to an N1
speed. An overboost can occur in the unrated N1 thrust setting at the full forward
thrust lever position. Use of unrated N1 thrust setting overboost above normal rat-
ed thrust is not recommended and will result in reduced engine life.
The maximum N1 must therefore be determined from charts in the Flight Crew Op-
erating Manual (FCOM).
It is a non-despatchable mode and autothrust is not available when operating in
this mode.
The processing of the N1 error signal is the same as for the rated N1 error signal.

FADEC Fault Strategy Complete Output Signal Failure


In case of complete output failure there will be no current flow through torque mo-
General tors or solenoids. The associated component will be the " FAIL-SAFE " position.
The Electronic Engine control (EEC) system is dual, the two channels are equal. If the EEC power supply is lost, the components will go into"FAILE-SAFE"
Failures are classified as class 1, 2, 3. position.
According to the failure class, the system can use data from the other channel, or
switch to the other channel. Faults are memorized in the system BITE as they oc-
cur.

Input Fault Strategy


All sensors and feedback signals are dual.
Each parameter sensor as well as feedback sensors used by each channel come
from two different sourses:
Local or cross- channel through the Cross channel Data Link
Some sensors can directly be synthetized by the corresponding channel

Single Input Signal Failure


There is no channel changeover for input signal failure, as long as the Cross
Channel Data Link is operativ.
Faults are not latched.
Automatic recovery is possible.

Dual Input Signal Failure


If dual input signal failure occurs, the system runs on synthetized values of the
healthiest channel.
The selected channel is one having the least significant failure.

Single Output Signal Failure


If an output failure occurs, there is an automatic switchover to the standby active
channel.

T/S Action
One Channel - most likely LRU failure.

Idle Control
Minimum idle (56 % - 60% N2) is corrected for ambient temp >30C, then N2
will increase.
Approach idle (approx. 70% N2)
It varies as a function of Total Air Temperature (TAT) and altitude.
This idle speed is selected to ensure sufficiently short accelleration time to go
around thrust and is set when the aircraft is in an approach configuration.(Flap
Lever Position -" NOT UP")
Reverse Idle (approx. 70% N2) = Approach Idle + 1000 RPM
FADEC sets the engine speed at reverse idle when the throttle is set in the re-
verse idle detent position.

FADEC LRUS Sensors Figure 41:

P3/T3 Sensor
The P3/T3 sensor monitors the pressure and temperature at the exit of the HP
compressor.
The combined sensor houses two thermocouples and one pressure inlet port.
Each thermocouple provides an independant electrical signal, proportional to tem-
perature, to one channel of the Electronic Engine Control (EEC).

Purpose
The purpose of the P3/T3 sensor is to provide performance data to the EEC for
starting and during transient and steady state operation of the engine.

P12.5 Sensor
The P12.5 sensor is a pressure tapping at the top of the fan case. It monitors the
pressure behind the fan stator. This pressure is used for trend monitoring.
The pressure tapping is also used for the cooling air supply of the dedicated alter-
nator(see Fig.114).

P2.5 / T2.5 Sensors


These two sensors are located in the intermediate case. They are monitoring the
pressure and temperature between the two compressors. T2.5 is used for system
scheduling, P2.5 is used for trend monitoring.

FADEC System Test 12. Pressure Sensor(s) Disagree - Indicates that the static pressure sensor test
ran and any two pressure sensors were not within the specified tolerances.
The FADEC SELF TEST should really be known as the FADEC SYSTEM TEST.
The test and results can be split into three categories described as follows.

Output Driver Test


This is a systen maintenance test that performs a wraparound (continuity) test of
all the EEC output driver lines and associated component wiring.
There are three possible results as follows:
4. Output Driver Test Failed - Indicates that a continuity fault was found.
5. Output Driver Test Passed - Indicates that no wraparound fault was found.
6. Output Driver Test No Run - Indicates that the test was not run because the test-
ed channel was not capable of powering the outputs.

Input / lnternal Test


This is the FADEC (EEC) internal check to verify that the local channel interface,
input and output circuits are functional prior to entering MENU MODE.
There are three possible results as follows:
7. Input / Internal Test Failed - Indicates that the activity monitor circuit test failed
or the local channel was unable to provide power to any Output or there were in-
terface or input fault.
8. Input / lnternal Test Passed - Indicates that the activity monitor circuit passed
and that no interface or input faults were set prior to entry into menu mode.
9. Input / Internal Test No Run - Indicates that the local cannel was not capable of
powering its outputs or that the EEC has not spent the minimum of 30 seconds in
normal mode.

Pressure Sensor Test


This is an internal measurement of the pressure sensors (P2, P5, Pb, PMX) in the
EEC via the local channel to make sure they are within a specified tolerance of
each other.
The three possible results are as follows:
10. Pressure Sensor(s) Failed - Indicates that an interface or range failure (from
normal mode) is set for any pressure sensor (hard failures).
11. Pressure Sensor(s) Agree - Indicates that the static pressure sensor test ran
and that all the pressure sensors are within tolerances.

Scheduled Maintenance Report Figure 51: SMR Menu


At the aircraft level :
Level A faults are considered class 1 faults with the associated specific in-
formation to the flight crew (ECAM warnings, advisory information...).
Level B faults are regrouped under the generic ECAM warning ENG X MI- <
NOR FAULT on the A330/A340 programs and under class 2 fault messages,
with a maintenance status, on the A3 19/320/32 1 programs. <
Level C faults are now covered by the powerplant Scheduled Maintenance
Report. <
This engine Scheduled Maintenance Report has been created by Airbus Indus-
trie and the engine manufacturers in order to fit the dispatch time limitation asso- < >
ciated to the engine level C faults ( REF. A320/A321 SIL 73-017 ).
<
Faults are not latched. Thus automatic recovery is possible.
< >
Originally all Short Time (level B 150 FH) and Long Time (level C 500
FH) engine faults were annunciated through Class 2 status messages and thus
had to be repaired within 10 days/150 FH. This was penalizing operators who
could not take advantage of the 500 FH interval associated with Long Time
faults.
So that the operators are no longer encumbered with this situation, the manufac-
turers developed a modification such that the Long Time level C faults no longer
appear as Class 2 messages.
A new facility Scheduled Maintenance Report (SMR) was introduced.
The following Airbus modifications introduce ECU/EEC software standards on the
CFM56-5B, V2500-A5 and PW6000 that cause ONLY Level C (time limited) faults
to be reported in the SMR (refer to figure 1). Unlimited faults no longer appear in
the SMR: they are indicated in the dedicated FADEC Class 3 report (access
through SYSTEM REPORT/TEST - ENGINE).
this is not applicable for V2500-A1 where BOTH time limited and unlimited
engine faults are reported in the SMR
SMR Time limited faults must be corrected within:
500 FH of previous task accomplishment for V2500-A1 engine
600 FH of previous task accomplishment for V2500-A5 engine and PW6000 < >
engine.
1200 FH of previous task accomplishment for CFM56-5A and 5B engines.

Engine Interface Unit Figure 53: EIU Location

EIU Presentation
Two EIUs are fitted on each aircraft, one for engine 1, one for engine 2
Each EIU, located in the electronics bay 80VU, is an interface concentrator be-
tween the airframe and the corresponding FADEC located on the engine, thus re-
ducing the number of wires. EIUs are active at least from engine starting to engine
shutdown, they are essential to start the engine.
The main functions of the EIU are:
to concentrate data from cockpit panels and different electronic boxes to the
associated FADEC on each engine,
to insure the segregation of the two engines,
to select the airframe electrical supplies for the FADEC,
to give to the airframe the necessary logic and information from engine to other
systems (APU, ECS, Bleed Air, Maintenance).

EIU Input Description


EIU Input from the EEC
The EIU acquires two ARINC 429 output data buses from the associated EEC
(one from each channel) and it reads data from the channel in control. When some
data are not available on the channel in control, data from the other channel are
used.
In the case where EIU is not able to identify the channel in control, it will assume
Channel A as in control.
The EIU looks at particular engine data on the EEC digital data flow to interface
them with other aircraft computers and with engine cockpit panels.

EIU Output to the EEC


Through its output ARINC 429 data bus, the EIU transmits data coming from all
the A/C computers which have to communicate with the EEC, except from ADCs
and throttle which communicate directly with the EEC.
There is no data flow during EIU internal test or initialization.

The deenergization of the ignition exciters is automatically commanded by the
EEC when engine N2 speed reaches 43%. (Starter cut-out)
Positioning of the MASTER control switch to OFF, during that starting sequence,
results in ignition exciter deenergization.

74-00 Starting 80-00 the MASTER control lever controls the HP fuel shut-off valve.
No start abort by the FADEC in case of failure.

General
Starting Schematic
The starting system of the engine utilizes pressurized air to drive a turbine at high
speed. This turbine drives the engine high pressure rotor through a reduction gear
and the engine accessory drive system.
The air which is necessary to drive the starter comes from:
either the APU
or the second engine
or a ground power unit.
The starter supply is controlled by a starter shut-off valve (SOV) pneumatically op-
erated and electrically controlled. In case of failure, the SOV can be operated by
hand.
The starter valve closes when the N2 speed reaches 43 %.
The starter centrifugal clutch disengages when N2 speed is higher than 43%.
Engine starting is controlled from the ENG start panel 115VU located on center
pedestal and ENG/MAN START switch on the overhead panel.
The starting sequence may be interrupted at any time by placing the MASTER
control lever in OFF position which overrides the FADEC. When the MASTER
control lever is in OFF position the HP fuel shut off valve is closed and the engine
is stopped.
Two procedures are applicable for engine starting:

A. Normal Starting Procedure (automatic)


The starting sequence is fully controlled by the FADEC and is selected when the
ENG/MODE/CRANK/NORM/IGN START selector switch is in IGN/START posi-
tion and the MASTER control lever in ON position. Start can be aborted on ground
only by the FADEC in case of failure.

B. Alternative Starting Procedure


This sequence controlled by the pilot is as follows:
the ignition selector switch in IGN/START position and MAN START pushbut-
ton switch command the starter shut-off valve,

Starter Motor - Operation


The starter is a pneumatically driven turbine unit that accelerates the H.P. rotor to
the required speed for engine starting. The unit is mounted on the front face of the
external gearbox.
The starter, shown below, comprises a single stage turbine, a reduction gear train,
a clutch and an output drive shaft - all housed within a case incorporating an air
inlet and exhaust.
Compressed air enters the starter, impinges on the turbine blades to rotate the tur-
bine, and leaves through the air exhaust. The reduction gear train converts the
high speed, low torque rotation of the turbine to low speed, high torque rotation of
the gear train hub.
The ratchet teeth of the gear hub engage the pawls of the output drive shaft to
transmit drive to the external gearbox, which in turn accelerates the engine H.P.
compressor rotor assembly.
When the air supply to the starter is cut off, the pawls overrun the gear train hub
ratchet teeth allowing the turbine to coast to a stop while the engine H.P.
turbine compressor assembly and, therefore, the external gearbox and starter out-
put drive shaft continue to rotate. When the starter output drive shaft rotational
speed increases above a predetermined r.p.m., centrifugal force overcomes the
tension of the clutch leaf springs, allowing the pawls to be pulled clear of the gear
hub ratchet teeth to disengage the output drive shaft from the turbine.

Cranking-Description
Air Supply
The air necessary for the starting comes from the duct connecting engine bleed
and the precooler.
The air necessary for the starter is supplied by either:
the other engine through the crossbleed system
the APU and in that case, all the air bled from the APU is used for starting
an external source able to supply a pressure between 30 and 40 psig.

Dry Cranking (Test No 1)


Requirement
A dry motoring of the engine will be needed when:
it is necessary to eliminate any fuel accumulated in the combustion chamber
a leak ckeck of engine systems is needed.
To perform this operation, the starter is engaged and the engine is motored but
the HP fuel shut off valve remains closed and both ignition systems are OFF.
The starter limitations when performing a dry crank are:
a maximum of 3 consecutive cycles; 2 minutes on, 15 seconds off up
2 times and one minute on, then 30 minutes off for cooling,
or 4 continuous minutes on, then 30 minutes off for cooling.

Wet Cranking
Wet Cranking (Test No 2)
A wet motoring will be needed when the integrity of the fuel system has to be
checked.
If such a test is performed, both ignition systems are off (also pull the circuit break-
ers) and the starter is engaged to raise N2 up to the required speed of 20%.
The MASTER control switch is moved to ON and the exhaust nozzle of the engine
carefully monitored to detect any trace of fuel. On the ECAM the FF indication
shows approx. 180kg initial fuel flow.
When the MASTER control switch will be returned to the OFF position to shut-off
the fuel, also the starter valve closes. The EEC automatically reengages the start-
er at 10% N2 and the engine should be motored for at least 60 seconds to elimi-
nate entrapped fuel or vapor.
The motoring can be performed for a maximum of three consecutive cycles (2 of
2 minutes and 1 of 1 minute with a cooling period of 15 seconds between each
cycles).
After three cycles or 4 miutes of continuous cranking, stop for a cooling period of
30 minutes.

Manual Start Figure 14: ECAM Start Pages


The engine manual start panel, used for manual start, is located on the overhead
panel and is composed of two manual start push button switches (one per engine).
The manual start mode limits the authority of the EEC so that the pilot can se-
quence the starter, ignition and fuel on/off manually. This includes the ability to dry
crank or wet crank.
During manual Start operation, the EEC Auto Startabort feature is not available
and conventional monitoring of the start parameters is required.
The EEC continues to provide fault indications to the cockpit.
The manual start procedure commences when the mode selector is set to:
IGN/START,
the manual start push button switch is set to ON and the master switch is OFF.
The starter air valve is then commanded open by the EEC.
When the master switch is turned ON (at 22% N2) during a manual start, both ig-
nitors are energized (IGN A/B) and fuel is turned on (Intial FF 180 KG/H).
Intermittent mode selector position has no effect on the manual start sequence
once the manual start procedure is initiated.
The starter air valve can be closed by selecting the manual start push button
switch OFF at any time prior to turning the master switch ON.
Once the master switch is turned ON, the manual start push button switch has no
effect on the start.
When the master switch is turned OFF, the control commands the HP fuel valve
closed, the starter air valve closed and the ignitors off and the EEC is resetted.

Handling Bleed Valves


Handling bleed valves are fitted to the H.P. compressor to improve engine starting,
and prevent engine surge when the compressor is operating at off-design condi-
tions.
A total of four bleed valves are used, three on stage 7 and one on stage 10.
The handling bleed valves are two position only - fully open or fully closed, and
are operated pneumatically by their respective solenoid control valve.
The solenoid control valves are scheduled by the EEC as a function of N2 and
T2.6 (N2 corrected).
When the bleed valves are open, H.P. compressor air bleeds into the fan duct
through ports in the inner barrel of the 'C' ducts.
The servo air used to operate the bleed valves is H.P. compressor delivery air
known as P3 or Pb.
The bleed valves are arranged radially around the H.P. compressor case as
shown below.
Silencers are used on some bleed valves.
All the bleed valves are spring loaded to the open position and as a result will al-
ways be in the correct position (open) for starting.

Handling Bleed Valves Function During an engine deceleration the reverse operation occurs and the bleed valve
opens.
Description Handling bleed valves (surge bleed)
The bleed valve is a two position valve and is either fully open or fully closed. The The bleed valves and the solenoid control valves all operate in the same manner.
bleed valve is spring loaded to the open position and so all the bleed valves will
be in the correct position - open - for the engine start. When the engine is started FAIL SAFE POSITION: "7th and 10th OPEN".
the bleed air from the engine will try to close the valve. The valve is kept in the
open position by servo air (P3) supplied from the solenoid control valve (solenoid
de-energised). The bleed valves will be closed at the correct time during an engine
acceleration by the EEC energising the solenoid control valve vents the P3 servo
air from the opening chamber of the bleed valve, and the bleed valve will move to
the closed position.

Operating Schedule
The schedule for one bleed valve - 7C - is shown, in detail, below.

Steady State
It can be seen that the valve will be commanded closed at stabilised min idle, 8600
N2, and will not be opened again in Steady state.

Transient
The valve will be commanded open during engine acceleration whenever N2 is
below the transient closing speed. Thus during an acceleration from min "idle to
max" speed the valve will be opened and will remain open until the speed passes
the transient closing speed.
If the acceleration is to a speed below the transient closing speed the valve will
remain open until the acceleration timer expires (30 seconds).
During decelerations the valve will be commanded open whenever N2 is below the
transient opening speed. The valve remains open until the deceleration ceases
and a deceleration time, 2 seconds, expires.
The transient regime is slightly modified for operation above 15000 ft but op-
erates in the same way.

Surge / Reverse
If the engine is operating in reverse thrust operation is the same as Transient but
different speeds apply. In the event of an engine surge the valve will be command-
ed open, if the speed is below the open speed, and will remain open until the en-
gine restabilises.

Introduction
The make up air discharges into the area around No4 bearing housing and sup-
plements the normal airflows in this area and increases the cooling flow passing
to the H.P. turbine, stage 2.
The cooling air used is taken from the 10th stage manifold, and is controlled by a
two position pneumatically operated valve.
The valve position is controlled by the E.E.C. as a function of corrected N2 and
altitude.

Operation
Signals from the E.E.C. will energise / deenergise the solenoid control valve.
This directs pneumatic servo supplies to position the 10th stage air valve to the
open / close position.

76-00 Engine Controls A mechanical cam design is provided to allow reverse thrust selection when thrust
lever is at forward idle position.
The thrust lever has 3 stops at the pedestal and 3 detents in the artificial feel unit:
Throttle Control System
General
The throttle control system consist of:
the throttle control lever
the throttle control artificial feel unit (Mechanical Box)
the thrust control unit
the electrical harness.
The design of the throttle control is based upon a fixed throttle concept:
this means that the throttle control levers are not servo motorized.

Thrust Control Unit


The Thrust Control Unit contains two resolvers, each of which sends the thrust le-
ver position to the Electronic Engine Control. The extraction current for the resolv-
ers is provided by the EEC.

Autothrust Disconnect Pushbutton


The autothrust instinctive disconnect pushbutton can be used to disengage the
autothrust function.

Thrust Levers
General
The thrust levers comprises:
a thrust lever which incorporates stop devices and autothrust instinctive dis-
connect pushbutton switch
a graduated fixed sector
a reverse latching lever.
The thrust lever is linked to a mechanical rod. This rod drives the input lever of the
throttle control artificial feel unit (Mechanical Box).

Reverse Thrust Latching Lever


To obtain reverse thrust settings, the revers thrust laching lever must be lifted.

Bump Rating Push Button(A1 Engined Aircraft only) Figure 2: Bump Push Bottons
This Push Buttons are optional equipment.
In some cases the throttle control levers are provided with "BUMP" rating push
buttons, one per engine. This enables the EEC to be re-rated to provide additional
thrust capability for use during specific aircraft operations.

Bump Rating Description


The takeoff bump ratings can be selected, regardless of the thrust lever angle,
only in the EPR mode when the airplane is on the ground.
The bump ratings, if available, are selected by a push button located on the thrust
lever.
Actuation of the switch will generate a digital signal to both EECs via the EIU. The
maximum take-off rating will then be increased by the pre-programmed delta EPR
provided the airplane is on the ground.
The bump ratings can be de-selected at anytime by actuating the bump rating
push button as long as the airplane is on the ground and the thrust lever is not in
the maximum takeoff (TO) detent.
Inflight, the bump ratings are fully removed when the thrust lever is moved from
the TO detent to, or below, the MCT detent.
The bump rating is available inflight (EPR or rated N1 mode) under the following
conditions.
Bump rating initially selected on the ground.
TO/GA thrust lever position set.
Airplane is within the takeoff envelope.
The bump rating is a non-standard rating and is only available on certain desig-
nated operator missions.
Use of the bump rating must be recorded. This information is for tracking by main-
tenance personnel.

Artificial Feel Unit (Mechanical Box)


The Throttle control artificial feel unit is located below the cockpit center pedestal.
This artificial feel unit is connected to engine 1(2) throttle control lever and to the
engine 1(2) throttle control unit by means of rods.
The artificial feel unit is a friction system which provides a load feedback to the
throttle control lever.
This artificial feel unit comprises two symmetrical casings, one left and one right.
Each casing contains an identical and independent mechanism.
Each mechanism is composed of:
a friction brake assembly
a gear assembly
a lever assembly
a bellcrank assembly
Throttle lever travel is transmitted to the to the artificial feel unit and to the throttle
control unit.
The linear movement of the throttle levers is transformed into a rotary movement
at the bellcrank which turns about the friction brake assembly shaft. This move-
ment rotates a toothed quadrant integral with the shaft.
This toothed quadrant causes inverse rotation of a gear equipped with a disk
which has four detent notches. Each notch corresponds to a throttle lever setting
and is felt as a friction point at the throttle levers.

Throttle Control Unit


The throttle control unit comprises:
an input lever
mechanical stops which limit the angular range
2 resolvers whose signals are dedicated to the EEC (one resolver per channel
of the EEC)
6 potentiometers fitted three by three. Their signals are used by the flight con-
trol system
a device which drives the resolver and the potentiometer
a pin device for rigging the resolvers and potentiometers
a safety device which leads the resolvers outside the normal operating range
in case of failure of the driving device
two output electrical connectors.
The input lever drives two gear sectors assembled face to face. Each sector drives
itself a set of one resolver and three potentiometers.
Relation between TRA and TLA:
The relationship between the throttle lever angle and throttle resolver angle
(TRA) is linear and: 1 deg. TLA = 1.9 TRA.
The accuracy of the throttle control unit (error between the input lever position and
the resolver angle) is 0.5 deg. TRA.
The maximum discrepancy between the signals generated by the two resolvers is
0.25 deg. TRA.
The TLA resolver operates in two quadrants:
The first quadrant serves for positive angles and the fourth quadrant for negative
angles.
Each resolver is dedicated to one channel of the EEC and receives its electrical
excitation from the EEC.
The EEC considers a throttle resolver angle value:
less than -47.5 deg. TRA or
greater than 98.8 deg. TRA as resolver position signal failure.
The EEC incorporates a resolver fault accomodation logic. This logic allows en-
gine operation after a failure or a complete loss of the throttle resolver position sig-
nal.

EPR System Components


P2 / T2 Sensor
The P2 / T2 sensor is located near the 12 oclock position of the inlet cowl. It meas-
ures total pressure and temperature in the inlet air stream of the engine forward of
the engine front flange. The dual output total temperature measurement is accom-
plished by two resistance-sensing elements housed in the P2/T2 sensor body.
Each channel of the Electronic Engine Control (EEC) monitors one of these resist-
ance elements and converts the resistance measurement to a temperature equiv-
alent.
The total air pressure is carried via pressure tubing to the pressure sensor located
in channel A of the EEC.
The P2 / T2 sensor has an anti-icing function accomplished by a single heating
element internally bonded to the sensor. The heater is a hermetically sealed, co-
axial resistance element brazed internally to the sensor casting. Aircraft power,
which is used for the heater, is switched on and off by the EEC depending on TAT
(< 7,2 C heater "ON"), via the relay box.
In case of loss of P2 / T2 heating, an automatic reversion from EPR mode
to unrated N1 mode occurs.

P4.9 Sensors
THE P4.9 SENSOR AND MANIFOLD HAS THREE PROBES WHICH MEASURE
THE TOTAL PRESSURE OF THE EXHAUST GAS STREAM.
Struts 4, 7 and 10 contain the pressure sensing ports. Each sensing point contains
eight radial pressure sensing ports which are combined to yield an average pres-
sure. The resulting average radial pressure value from each strut is then plumbed
into a manifold which provides an overall turbine exhaust pressure average
(P4.9). A tube from this manifold is connected to the Electronic Engine Control
(EEC channel A).
A pressure transducer located within the EEC converts the average pressure at
station 4.9 into a useable electronic signal (proportional to pressure) that can be
processed and used by the EEC to control the engine.

77-10 Power Figure 10: N1 Speed Sensor

N1 Indication
The fan speed (N1) indication system has four sensors:
Two of them are used to provide EEC channels "A" and "B" with N1 rotational
speed signal.
One sensor acts as a spare fore either EEC channel (it can be activated by
changeover connectors at the junction box).
This sensor cannot be used in place of the N1 sensor dedicated to the Engine
Vibration Monitoring Unit with N1 analog signals (trim balance sensor), see be-
low.
One sensor provides the Engine Vibration Monitoring Unit with N1 analog sig-
nals (trim balance sensor).
The N1 electrical harness tube goes through the inner strut of the no. 3 strut of
the intermediate structure and to the terminal block.
The electrical leads from each sensor goes through the N1 tube and is con-
nected to the terminal block.
For the fan speed sensors, one turn on the LP shaft causes 60 teeth on the
phonic wheel to pass its sensor.
For the trimbalance sensor, one slot in the phonic wheel passes the sensor one
time for one turn.
The EEC speed sensors have two pole pieces compared to the trimbalance
sensor who has only one pole piece.

Interchange of N1 Speed Sensors


Task 77-11-00-860-010
If the fan speed sensor No. 1 is unserviceable, disconnect the harness leads
No. 1 and No. 2 from their terminals No 1 and No 2.
Reconnect the harness lead No 1 to the terminal No. 3 and the harness lead No.
2 to the terminal No. 4 of the spare speed sensor.
If the fan speed sensor No 3 is unserviceable, disconnect the harness leads
No. 5 and No. 6 from their terminals No. 5 and No. 6 and reconnect the harness
leads to the spare speed sensor as described above.

Dedicated Alternator (PMA)


The alternator function are:
the primary power source for the Electronic Engine Control (EEC)
N2 signal source for the EEC and Engine Vibration Monitoring Unit (EVMU)
and the cockpit

Description
The unit is designed for maximum reliability by the elimination of splines, bearings
or similar parts which can deteriorate or fail.
The rotor is mounted directly on the gearbox output shaft and the stator is bolted
to the gearbox housing.
The alternator provides two identical and independent power outputs, one for
each channel of the EEC.
It comprises two stators (one power and one speed) and a rotor.
Is driven from the main accessory gearbox
Consists of a magnetic rotor running in a stator. The stator has four independ-
ing windings, two of which provide three phase frequency AC electric power to
respectively channel "A" and "B".
The third winding provides a single phase AC analog signal proportional to N2
for the Engine Vibration Monitoring System.
The forth winging provides a dedicated N2 signal to Channel "A" of the EEC.
The N2 windings gives an analog signal through the cockpit for ECAM indica-
tion.
The stator and rotor are sealed from the gearbox by a shaft seal. If a shaft seal
failure occurs and the alternator fills with engine oil, the alternator will continue to
function normally.
To maintain the temperature of the dedicated alternator at an acceptable level the
alternator incorporate an integral cooling air manifold using fan air.

Thrust Reverser Independent Locking System Figure 5: Shut-Off Valve


**ON A/C 116-199,

General
An independent locking system is designed to isolate the thrust reverser from the
aircraft hydraulic system. This system consists of thrust reverser Shut-Off Valve
(SOV) upstream of the Hydraulic Control Unit (HCU), a filter and associated
plumbing, mounting and electrical supply. The SOV is electrically actuated from
an independent signal from the SEC (Spoiler Elevator Computer), bypassing the
FADEC command circuit.

Component Location
The SOV and the filter are located under the pylon. (Ref. Fig. 001)

Component Description
Shut-Off Valve
The thrust reverser Shut-Off Valve (SOV) is a 3 port, two position spool valve.
It is controlled by a solenoid driven 3 port, two position normally open pilot valve.
Electrical power is supplied to the SOV through the fan electrical feeder box.

Filter and Clogging Indicator


It is used to filter the fluid from the aircraft hydraulic system. The filter is a flow-
through cartridge-type filter. The clogging indicator monitors the pressure loss
through the filter cartridge and has a pop-out indicator to signal when it is neces-
sary to replace the filter element. Two spring-loaded magnetic pistons keep the
pop out indicator in retracted position. The lower magnetic piston monitors the dif-
ferential between the filtered and unfiltered fluid pressure across the filter element.
As the differential pressure increases, the piston compresses its spring and
moves away from the upper magnetic piston. At a preset displacement of approx-
imately 2 mm, the upper magnetic piston spring overcomes the magnetic force
and drives the pop-out indicator from its retracted position. The filter assembly
contains a check valve to permit the removal of the canister and the change of the
filter element with a minimum of spillage.

filter and clogging indicator (pop out).

Isolation Valve
The solenoid operated isolation valve isolates the thrust reverser actuation sys-
tems from the remaining hydraulic network on the engine. The isolation valve so-
lenoid is a dual coil valve solenoid connected to both channels of the EEC.
The isolation valve is in the closed position while the thrust reverser is in the
stowed position. Upon actuation of the thrust reverser system, the isolation valve
solenoid is energized and the isolation valve is opened.

Directional Control Valve


The solenoid operated directional control valve directs high pressure hydraulic flu-
id to the correct end(s) of the actuators to either stow or deploy the translating
sleeve. The directional control valve solenoid is a dual wound solenoid connected
to both channels of the EEC. The directional control valve solenoid is energized
when the deploy command is given and provides hydraulic fluid at hydraulic pump
supply pressure to both ends of the actuators through the directional control valve
to initiate deployment of translating sleeve.

HCU Deploy Sequence Description


1. When reverse thrust is selected in the cockpit, the EEC ensures that deploy-
ment is permitted. In that case, the electrical power (28VDC) is sent to the iso-
lation valve solenoid and to the directional valve solenoid.
2. When the isolation valve is opened and the directional control valve solenoid
is energized, hydraulic pressure (3000 psi) moves the directional control valve
to supply hydraulic pressure to the head end of the actuator to unlock the ac-
tuators, and then extending the actuators.
3. As soon as both lock sensors indicate unlocked for more than 0.2 seconds (in-
dicating that translating sleeves are unlocked sleeves signal is sent by these
sensors to the EEC. In the cockpit an amber REV indication is displayed in the
middle of the EPR dial or the ECAM display unit.
4. Each translating sleeve arriving at 95 percent of its travel is slowed down until
completely deployed through hydraulic actuator inner restriction. This event is
indicated to EEC when both Linear variable Differential Transformers (LVTD)
detect this position. REV indication changes to green.
When the thrust reverser is in the deployed position, the isolation valve re-
mains energized to maintain the hydraulic pressure in the actuators to pre-
vent vibration. If an uncommanded stow movement is detected, the EEC will
de-energize the isolation valve. This will lead to a thrust reverser redeploy
due to aerodynamical forces on the blocker doors.

HCU Stow Sequence Description


1. When translating sleeves stowing is selected, the EEC ensures that stowing is
permitted. In that case the EEC de-energizes the directional valve solenoid.
When one translating sleeve is less than 95% deployed, REV indication chang-
es to amber.
2. Hydraulic pressure is supplied to the rod end of the actuator, the head is con-
nected to return. A flow limiter controls hydraulic actuator piston retraction
speed.
3. When both translating sleeves are at 0% from their stowed position, they set
the proximity switches (lock sensor) which send the "stowed sleeves" informa-
tion to the EEC. The REV indication disappears.
4. The actuators move until stowing is complete and the lower actuator locks are
engaged after which the isolation valve solenoid is de-energized and the re-
verser is locked in the forward thrust mode position.

Command Limitation
If the Linear Variable Differential Transducers (LVDTs) sense an uncommanded
movement of the thrust reverser:
From the stowed position, the EEC commands an automatic stowage
From the full deployed position, the EEC commands an automatic deployment.

Auto-restow
In FWD thrust, if the EEC detects any un commanded movement greater than
10% from stow, it commands an auto-re stow of the thrust reverser. Following
auto-re stow, the isolation valve in the HCU remains energized for the rest of the
flight. In FWD thrust, if the EEC detects any un commanded movement greater
than 15% from stow, it commands engine idle power.

Auto-redeploy
In reverse thrust, if the EEC detects any un commanded movement greater than
10% from full deploy, it commands an auto-re deploy of the thrust reverser. When
auto-re deploy is initiated to counteract inadvertent stow, the EEC will command
the isolation valve to close and maintain it closed until FWD thrust has been rese-
lected. The air aerodynamic load on the translating sleeves will normally be suffi-
cient to redeploy the thrust reverser. In reverse thrust, if the EEC detects any un
commanded movement greater than 22% from full deploy, it commands engine
idle power.

Hydraulic Actuators
The actuator base is attached to a torque ring and the end of the piston is attached
to the translating sleeve. As hydraulic pressure builds up in the actuator, the piston
extends. This moves the translating sleeve aft to the deploy position.
In the retract mode, the piston retracts which moves the translating back to the
stow position.
The Upper actuators (2) have internal LVDT.
The Lower actuators (2) have a manual unlocking handle and proximity switches.

Flexshaft Installation
Synchronization System
Flexible Shafts
Three flexible shafts connect the four actuators together to synchronize the speed
with which the actuators operate and the T/R sleeves on each side of the engine.
This synchronization keeps the top and bottom of the sleeve travelling at the same
rate so the sleeve will not tilt and jam. The synchronization also keeps the two
translating sleeves moving together so reverse pressure in the secondary air flow
is equal on both sides of the engine.
The flexible shafts are installed inside the extend (deploy) hydraulic hoses. The
shaft engages a worm gear at the base of the actuator that translates the turning
action of the actuator piston as it moves out or in.
A cross-over shaft connects the two upper actuators.
Another shaft connects the upper and lower actuators on each side.

Hydraulic Actuators Description


Four actuators are used for each thrust reverser, two actuators are used for each
translating cowl.
the lower actuators incorporate an integral lock mechanism which holds the
piston in the fully stowed position.
the upper actuators incorporate an integral Linear Variable Directional Trans-
former (LVDT) to indicate piston position, and thus translating cowl position, to
the EEC.
All actuators use hydraulic snubbing at the end of the deploy stroke to slow down
the actuators over the final part of the deploy stroke. All actuators also incorporate
the necessary deploy stroke mechanical stops.

Upper Nonlocking Actuator


The two upper actuators are identical and in conjunction with the two lower locking
actuators, control movement of the fan reverser translating elements in response
to hydraulic inputs from the HCU.

Reverser Testing via MCDU
Via MCDU it is possible to operate the reverser on ground with engines OFF to
make sure the system operation is o.k.
For the TEST refer to:
MM Task 78-31-00-710-41 Operational Test of the Thrust Reverser System with
the CFDS.

Description
For the test hydraulic power must be switched on depending which reverser sys-
tem will be tested. (Green ENG 1, Yellow END 2).
All the test steps are written on the MCDU. If the test is active the REV UNSTOW
warning appears on the engine warning display.
Movement of the throttle into the reverse idle position will deploy the reverser. Re-
turning the throttle to the FWD idle position will restow the reverser. During the test
also the REV indication in the EPR indicator must be checked.
The actual position of the T/R is also indicated on the MCDU.
Make sure the travel ranges of the thrust reversers are clear.
For safety reasons the Test time duration is limited to 60 sec.

79-00 Oil System to specific levels of engine thrust setting. At engine idle power, the valve opens to
provide the maximum area for scavenge flow. At higher power, the valve closes to
a reduced area which provides, adequate pressure in the No. 4 bearing compart-
ment to protect the seals by maintaining low pressure differentials across compart-
Oil System Presentation ment walls and minimizes air leakage into the bearing chamber.
System Description The scavenge valve pressure transducer senses the pressure present in the scav-
enge line upstream of the scavenge valve and supplies a signal to the EIU.
The lubrication system is self-contained and thus requires no airframe supplied
components other than certain instrumentation and remote fill and drain port dis- A pressure relief valve at the filter housing limits pump discharge pressure to ap-
connectors on the oil tank. These ports are used to refill the oil tank promptly and proximately 450 psi to protect downstream components.
precisely by allowing the airlines to quick-connect a pressurized oil line and a drain
line.
It is a hot tank system that is not pressure regulated.
Oil from the oil tank enters the one stage pressure pump and the discharge flow
is sent directly to the oil filter. A coarse cleanable filter is employed.
The oil then is piped through the air cooled oil cooler and the fuel cooled oil cooler,
which are part of the Heat Management System (HMS), which ensures that engine
oil, IDG oil and fuel temperatures are maintained at acceptable levels, to the bear-
ings. Except for the No 3 bearing damper and the No.4 bearing compartment, the
pressure supplied to each location is controlled by a restrictor.
There is a last chance strainer at the entry of each compartment to prevent
blockage by any debris / carbon flakes in the oil.
The scavenge oil is then piped, either directly or through the de-oiler to the 5 stage
scavenge pumps. There is a disposable cartridge type scavenge filter at the outlet
of the scavenge pumps before returning to the oil tank. A valve allows oil to bypass
the scavenge filter when the filter differential pressure exceeds 20 psi. A differen-
tial pressure warning switch. set at 12 psi gives cockpit indication of impending
scavenge filter bypass.
The oil pressure is measured as a differential between the main supply line pres-
sure, upstream of any restrictors, and the pressure in the No.4 bearing compart-
ment scavenge line, upstream of the two position scavenge valve.
A low pressure warning switch, which is set for 60 psi, is provided in the main oil
line before the bearing compartments and after the ACOC and FCOC at the same
tapping points as the oil pressure sensor. This allows for cockpit monitoring of low
oil pressure. The engine oil temperature is measured in the combined scavenge
line to the oil tank.
The No. 4 bearing two position scavenge valve is operated pneumatically by tenth
stage air and controls vented air flow from the bearing compartment in response

Centre Bearing Compartment (Bearing no.4)


The following bearing is located in the centre bearing compartment:
Roller bearing no.4. (HP Radial)

Description
The centre bearing compartment is the hottest compartment in the engine.
In order to maintain the bearing at an acceptable operating temperature HPC12
air is taken from the engine, it is cooled by an air cooled air cooler (ACAC) and
passed back into the engine.
This cooling and sealing air is called buffer air.
The buffer cooling air supply flows around the outside of the bearing in a cooling
type jacket.
In addition to cooling the buffer air is allowed to pass across the carbon seal and
pressurise the no.4 bearing.
This bearing compartment has the following:
Oil fed from the pressure pump.
Scavenge oil and vent air recovery by the build up of pressure in the bearing com-
partment forcing the air and oil out. The air and oil passes through the no.4 bearing
scavenge valve and then into the de oiler.

Rear Bearing Compartment (Bearing no.5)


The following bearing is located in the rear bearing compartment:
Roller bearing no.5. (LP Radial)

Description
The rear bearing compartment has one carbon seal. This seal allows HPC8 air to
leak across the seal thus preventing oil loss from the bearing compartment.
This bearing compartment has the following:
Oil fed from the pressure pump.
Scavenge oil recovery by the scavenge pumps.

There is no vent outlet.


The vent air is removed from the bearing compartment along with the scavenge
oil.

Service experience has shown it is very important to clean the number 5 bear-
ing compartment oil feed, scavenge tubes and compartment (oil jet) to prevent
the build up of coke/carbon. Ineterval 6000 FH.
Blocked oil scavenge tubes cause oil flooding in the number 5 bearing com-
partment, which is characterized by tail pipe smoke, tail pipe fire, high oil con-
sumption and/or oil wetness in the LPT, all of which cause maintenance
disruption. Oil feed tube blockage causes oil starvation of the number 5 bear-
ing, which can result in bearing damage.

Scavenge System
The scavenge system main components are:
chip detectors,
five scavenge pumps with strainers,
one common scavenge filter.
a 2-positions scavenge valve. (Bearing No.4)

Scavenge Pumps
Purpose
The scavenge pump returns the oil back to the oil tank.

Description
The scavenge pump is a five-stage gear type pump on the rear left side of the ge-
abox. Four stages of the scavenge pump are two-gear displacement pumps. The
stage used for the two main gearbox scavenge lines consists of three meshing
gears producing two inlets and outlets on opposite sides. All 6 scavenge pumps
are housed together as a single unit. The pump capacity is determined by the
width of the gears.

Scavenge Oil Components


Scavenge Filter
The flows from the 6 scavenge pumps are mixed together at the scavenge filter
common filter inlet.

Location
The filter is mounted to the rear of the oil tank.

Features
disposable filter element
by-pass valve (opens when filter clogs)
Differential pressure connections
provides housing for the master magnetic chip detector
Oil Temperature sensor

Scavenge Filter Differential Pressure Switch


The scavenge filter differential pressure switch is installed on a bracket at the top
left side of the engine fan case, near the FCOC.
Switches the ECAM OIL FILTER CLOG warning when the filter becomes blocked
(+12PSI or - 2 PSI differential press)

Engine Oil Temperature


The scavenge oil temperature thermocouple is located in the combined scavenge
line between the master magnetic chip detector and the scavenge filter for indica-
tion in the cockpit.
The oil temperature is sensed by a dual resistor unit. The unit consists of a sealed,
wire-wound resistance element. This element causes a linear change in the DC
resistance when exposed to a temperature change.
Temperature measurement range:
- 60 deg. C to 250 deg. C.
The analog signal from the scavenge oil temperature thermocouple is transmitted
to the EIU. The EIU transforms this signal into a digital signal. This digital signal is
then transmitted to the lower ECAM display unit through the FWCs and the DMC.

Two EIU logics provide a warning message to the ECAM:
Feedback to EIU of valve operation is the valve position indicator; scavenge oil
pressure sensor and Pb indication from the EEC. ENG 1 (2) BEARING 4 OIL SYS. (class 2) and a CFDS message, when the valve
is not in the correct position according to the sensed burner pressure.
The no.4 bearing scavenge valve controls the flow of the scavenge oil and vent air
by varying the size of the orifice of the valve. One EIU logic provides a message on the lower ECAM:
This allows the scavenge oil and vent air to enter the de oiler under controlled con- Eng. 1 (2) Bearing (class 2) and a fault message is set on the CFDS
ditions. (EIU menu) when the No. 4 bearing compartment pressure is to high according to
the valve position and a high burner press.(possible Carbon seal failure)
High flow
When the engine is at low power the valve is at the high flow position.
Therefore the valve is fully open and the pressure differential is maintained across
the carbon seal.

Low flow
When the engine is at high power the valve is at the low flow position.
Therefore the valve is at the restricted flow condition and the pressure differential
is maintained across the carbon seal.
Note:
High flow at high power will cause a lower seal differential pressure. This will lead
to the flow of buffer air across the carbon seal to increase.
The increase flow of buffer air leads to the carbon seal drying out.

Engine Oil Pressure


The Oil pressure is directly linked to the opening and closing of the No.4 Bearing
Scavenge Valve.
A closing of the valve to minimum flow (at approx. 85% N2) will restrict the return
scavenge flow to the deoiler.
This will result in a pressure drop, because the ratio of the pressures will change.
(the oil pressure is the differential pressure of the oil pressure feed line and the
scavenge line).
The No. 4 compartment scavenge oil pressure range is 0 to 160 PSI.
Normal operating pressure is 0-145 PSI after three minutes of stabilization at idle
speed.

Oil System Pressure Sensing


General
The oil pressure indicating system gives a cockpit indication of the engine oil sys-
tem working pressure.
The indication of this pressure comes electrically from an oil pressure transmitter
on each engine.
The oil pressure transmitter is bolted to a bracket on the top left side of the en-
gine fan case.
The oil pressure transmitter is connected to the engine oil system by two steel
tubes. One tube connects to the oil supply tube (to the engine and gearbox
bearings). The other tube connects to the No. 4 bearing oil scavenge tube (to
the oil scavenge pump).
Power supply: 28VDC from busbar 101PP (202PP).
Pressure range: 0 to 400 psid.
Output voltage: 1VDC to 9VDC varying linearly with pressure from 0 to 400
psid.

Low Oil Pressure Switch


The low oil pressure switch is installed on a bracket at the top left side of the en-
gine fan case, beside the oil pressure transmitter.
The oil pressure switch is connected between the oil supply tube and the No.4
bearing scavenge tube.
When the oil pressure drops below 60 psi the switch closes and a red warning is
triggert in the cockpit.
The set point range is between 45psi and 75psi.

Magnetic Chip Detectors (M.C.D.)


A total of 7 M.C.D. s are used in the oil scavenge system.
Each bearing compartment and gearbox has its own deticated M.C.D. (two in the
case of the main gearbox) although that for the No.4 bearing is located in the de-
oiler scavenge outlet).
Magnetic Chip Detectors Location
The M.C.D. s for:
No.1, 2 and 3 bearings
main gearbox / L/H scavenge pick-up
angle gearbox
are located to the rear of the main gearbox on the L/H side, as shown below.
The M.C.D.s for:

De - oiler (No.4 bearing)
Main gearbox (R/H scavenge pick up)
are located as shown below.
Do not try to install the MCD if the seal rings are not installed. A saftey mech-
anism is installed in the MCD housing to prevent installation of the MCD if
the front seal ring is not installed.
If only the front seal ring is installed, failure of this seal ring could result in an
in-flight shutdown of the engine because of oil leakage.

IDG Oil Servicing


IDG Oil Pressure Fill
A quick fill coupling situated on the transmission casing enables pressure filling or
topping up the unit with oil. The oil thus introduced flows to the transmission via
the scavenge filter and external cooler circuit. This ensures:
the priming of the external circuit
the filtration of any oil introduced.
An internal standpipe connected to an overflow drain ensures a correct quantity of
oil.

Oil Filter
A clogged filter indication is provided by a local visual pop out indicator. The indi-
cator is installed on the anti drive end of the IDG.

Oil Level Check


You can read the oil level through two sight glasses located on the IDG.
One sight glass serves for the CFM 56 engine, the other one for the V2500 engine.
The oil level must be at or near the linie between the yellow and green bands.
If the oil level is not at this position, connect the overflow drain hose and drain
the oil until the correct filling level is reached. This will also depressurize the
IDG case.
If the overflow drainage procedure is used it can take up to 20 minutes to
complete.
Failure to observe the overflow time requirements can cause high oil level
condition resulting in elevated operating temperatures and damage/ discon-
nect to IDG.

Engine Fire Detection Logic


General
The engine Fire Detection Unit (FDU) has two channels capable of detecting any
case of engine fire and loop failure. Each channel does the same detection logic
depending on the loop A and loop B status.

Fire Warning
In case of a fire detected on both loops or on one loop with the other faulty, the
channels provide a fire warning to the ENGINE FIRE panel, ENGINE START con-
trol panel and ECAM displays. The FDU generates a fire warning signal if any of
the following conditions are met:
fire on loop A and fire on loop B
fire on loop A and fault on loop B
fault on loop A and fire on loop B
fault on loop A and fault on loop B within 5 seconds (both loops broken due to
a torching flame).

Loop Fault Warning


In case of a loop failure the FDU supplies a loop fault warning signal to the ECAM
and Centralized Fault Display Interface Unit (CFDIU).
The FDU generates an inoperative signal if any of the following conditions are met:
electrical failure,
integrity failure,
detection of a single loop FIRE during more than 16 s while the other loop is in
normal condition.

Detection Fault Warning


The detection fault logic is based on a dual loop failure. It agrees with a total loss
of the detection system. When the FDU generates two inoperative signals related
to loop A and loop B fault logic, the Flight Warning Computer (FWC) elaborates
the fault warning.

A319/A320/A321 26-12 Engine Fire and Overheat Detection

Electrical Circuits
Fire Detection Circuit
The engine fire and overheat detection system is supplied by the electrical power
from the DC system. Each engine has two continuous loops connected in parallel
to a Fire Detection Unit (FDU). Each FDU has two identical channels: channel A
and B. Each one has its own power supply and is connected to one fire detection
loop.

Fire Extinguishing Circuit


The engine fire extinguishing system is supplied by electrical power from the DC
system. For each engine the system comprises one ENGINE FIREP/BSW, two
SQUIB/DISCHARGE P/BSWs and one TEST P/B located on the ENG and APU
FIRE panel; and two fire extinguishing bottles located in the engine pylon.

Test Pushbutton
The operational test lets the pilot monitor and activate the fire protection system.
It can be done on the ground or in flight. Each engine has its TEST P/B which must
be pushed and held when doing the test. When the TEST P/B is pressed, the fire
warning indications are triggered on the related engine section on the ENG and
APU FIRE panel. Each TEST P/B lets the crew check the condition of the fire de-
tectors, the FDU, and the indication warnings. It initiates the loops and squib tests.

Engine Fire Pushbutton


Pushing the ENG FIRE P/BSW arms the engine fire extinguishing bottles firing
system. The SQUIB lights come on to indicate that fire bottles can be used. At the
same time the engine is isolated from the rest of the aircraft systems.

Disch Pushbutton
When the AGENT P/BSW is selected the extinguishing agent flows in the rigid
pipes and is immediately sprayed in the engine zones. The amber DISCH legend
comes on when the fire extinguisher bottle is completely discharged. The DISCH
alarm module sends the related signal to the Flight Warning Computer (FWC).

Engine Fire Pushbutton Interfaces


General
During the engine fire procedure, the ENGINE FIRE P/BSW is manually released
out. This triggers several automatic sequences simplifying further crew actions
and system monitoring.

Monitoring Interfaces
Releasing the fire P/BSW out cancels the Continuous Repetitive Chime (CRC),
signals the action to the Flight Warning Computer (FWC) for further management
of other warnings and messages and the SQUIB light comes on, on the engine fire
control panel.

Supply Interfaces
Quick isolation of all systems on the related engine, which could be the origin of
the fire or feed the fire, is achieved as soon as the fire P/BSW is released out.
These systems are:
fuel,
air,
electric power,
hydraulic power.
The electric supply to the Engine Interface Unit (EIU) is also disconnected.

FDU - Bite At power up test, internal functions of the FDU are tested and all the detectors are
isolated from the FDU because detector conditions are simulated by the BITE.
The tests performed by each FDU are:
Power up test The power up test will be initiated if the computer power supply has been de-en-
ergized for more than 200 ms. The duration of the power up test is 57 seconds.
MCDU test
In Operation test The MCDU test is performed by maintenance crew from the MCDU with the air-
craft on ground.
The MCDU test is identical to the power up test.
The In Operation test is divided into a cyclic test and a permanent test.
The In Operation test includes:
Figure 3: FDU-Bite a cyclic test automatically performed and provided that the aircraft is in flight.
During this test, the FDU internal functions are tested as well as the loop B
power supply (for engines and APU), discrepancies between LGCIU1 and
LGCIU2 inputs and the pin programming.
a permanent test, automatically performed when the system operates. During
this test the FDU receives and analyses both detection loop signals. The FDU
continuously monitors the circuits and is capable of detecting one or more fail-
ures in both loop detection circuits.

The power up test is performed automatically as soon as the Fire Detection Unit
is electrically supplied and only if the aircraft is on ground.

Fault Detection and Monitoring of the System


The monitoring system detects failures and abnormal operation of the engine
bleed air supply system. It warns the crew and transmits the relevant information
to the upper and lower ECAM display units. Additionally the MASTER CAUT light
comes on and a single chime sounds. The system also enables abnormal opera-
tion and failure to be detected during flight in order to facilitate replacement on the
ground of faulty components (Line Replaceable Units, LRU).
Valves are fitted with position microswitches for monitoring.

The PRV closes pneumatically in case of impending reverse flow to the engine.
The Overpressure Valve (OPV) installed downstream of the PRV protects the sys- 4
tem against damage if overpressure occurs.
A sense line (1/4 in. dia.) connects the PRV to the HP Bleed Valve in order to close
the HP Bleed Valve if the PRV is closed or controlled to close. The thermal fuse
installed in the valve body causes the valve to close at 450 plus or minus 25 deg.C.

Regulation
The upstream pressure supplies chamber (1) of the regulator through a jet to con-
trol the position of the clapper (2) and maintain constant air pressure in the actu-
ator opening chamber. 2
The regulator calibration can be modified by the secondary stage of the regulator

When the upstream pressure increases and reaches 75 psig, the OPV starts to
close (pressure on the piston overcomes the spring force). This decreases the air
flow and so reduces the downstream pressure. At 85 psig upstream pressure the Test Port
OPV is fully closed, it opens again when the upstream pressure has decreased to
less than or equal to 35 psig.

Safety Devices and Indications


The OPV is equipped with a test port which serves to perform an "in situ" test. A

The FAV is a 5.5 in. dia. butterfly-type valve, normally spring - loaded closed in the
absence of pressure. A minimum upstream pressure of 8 psig is necessary to
open the valve. The FAV regulates the dowstream precooler exchanger tempera-
ture to 200 plus or minus 15 deg.C (27 deg.F).

Regulation
A thermostat installed downstream of the precooler exchanger senses the hot air
temperature and sends to the valve a pressure signal corresponding to precooler
cooling air demand. The FAV butterfly takes a position from fully closed to fully
open to maintain the temperature value of air bled within limits.
