FUEL STORAGE – GENERAL DESCRIPTION

Fuel Tank Arrangement

These are the fuel tanks:

- Main tank 1
- Main tank 2
- Center tank.

Surge tanks collect fuel overflow only. The fuel overflow in the
left wing surge tank drains to main tank 1. The fuel overflow in
the right wing surge tank drains to main tank 2. If the fuel level is
high enough in the surge tank fuel drains out the vent scoop.

Component Location

Main tank 1 is in the wing box of the left wing. Main tank 2 is in
the wing box of the right wing. The center tank is in the fuselage
and the left and right wing root.

Capacity

The capacity of main tank 1 is 8,630 lbs (3,915 kgs). The


capacity of main tank 2 is 8,630 lbs (3,915 kgs). The capacity of
the center tank is 28,830 lbs (13,066 kgs). Fuel tank capacity
does not include surge tanks.

The capacity of each surge tank is 235 lbs (107 kgs).

FUEL STORAGE – FUEL VENT SYSTEM

General

The fuel vent system keeps the pressure of the fuel tanks near
the ambient pressure. Too large a pressure difference can cause
damage to the wing structure.

Drains let fuel in the vent system return to the tanks.

Flame arrestors make sure excessive heat does not enter the
fuel vent system. A clogged flame arrestor causes the pressure
relief valve in the surge tank to open. When open, the pressure
relief valve becomes another vent for the fuel vent system.

Component Locations

Stringers and the upper wing skin make the vent channels. The
vent channels have drain float valves in the center tank.
Vent tubes attach to vent channels. Each vent tube has a drain
float valve.

A fuel vent float valve is on the outboard fuel tank end rib in main
tank 1 and main tank 2.

A surge tank drain check valve is on the outboard fuel tank end
rib in main tank 1 and main tank 2.

The vent scoop and pressure relief valve are on an access door
in each surge tank.

the vent scoop. in the fuel vent system.

The fuel vent float valves equalize the pressure between main
tank 1, main tank 2, and the surge tanks when the airplane is in a
cruise or descent attitude.

The drain float valves in the vent tubes and the vent channels
permit fuel in the vent system to drain into the tank when the fuel
level is lower than the valve.

The surge tank drain check valve permits fuel in the surge tank
to flow to either main tank 1 or main tank 2. The surge tank drain
check valve also prevents fuel flow from main tank 1 and main
tank 2 to the surge tank.

The pressure relief valve prevents damage to the wing structure


when there is too much positive or negative pressure in the fuel
tanks. The pressure relief valve is usually closed. When closed, it
is even with the bottom surface of the wing. When there is too
much positive or negative pressure, the pressure relief valve
opens. When it is open, part of the pressure relief valve is in the
fuel tank. After it opens, the pressure relief valve stays in the
open position. In the open position, the pressure relief valve

FUEL INDICATING – GENERAL DESCRIPTION

General

The fuel quantity indicating system (FQIS) calculates the fuel


weight in each fuel tank. The fuel quantity of each tank shows on
the common display system (CDS). fuel quantity processor unit
(FQPU) calculates total fuel weight and supplies this to the
FMCS.

Operation

The fuel quantity processor unit sends excitation to and receives


signals from the tank units and the compensators. The fuel
quantity processor unit uses these signals to calculate fuel
quantity in each tank.

Each refueling indicator has an overfill indication. The quantity


blinks on, then off, at a one second rate when the fuel in the tank
is more than maximum rated capacity.

Individual fuel tank quantity shows on the CDS and the refuel - 1,600 lb (725 kg) or more of fuel in the center tank
panel. - Both center tank boost pumps off
- Either engine is in operation.
Fuel quantity shows in kilograms.

Fuel Configuration Messages

Fuel configuration messages show on the CDS. These


messages show a problem with the configuration of the fuel
system.

The LOW message shows that either main tank 1 or main tank 2
has less than 2,000 lb (907 kg) of fuel. This message goes away
when there is more than 2,500 lb (1133 kg) of fuel in that tank.
The low fuel condition must exist for 30 seconds before the LOW
message shows.

The IMBAL message shows when there is a difference of 1,000


lb (453 kg) between main tank 1 and main tank 2. The message
goes away when the difference between tanks is 200 lb (90 kg)
or less. The IMBAL message only shows when the airplane is in
the air. The IMBAL message does not show when the LOW
message shows. The imbalance condition must exist for 60
seconds before the IMBAL message shows.

AIRBORNE AUXILIARY POWER – APU COOLING

General

The APU cooling air system cools the APU compartment and the
APU engine oil.

Compartment Cooling

APU compartment cooling uses an eductor to pull outside air


through the APU compartment. The high speed flow of the APU
exhaust forms a low pressure area. This low pressure pulls
outside air through the eductor inlet duct to the APU
compartment. The cooling air then goes through the oil cooler
and out the APU exhaust duct.

See the APU oil section for more information on the oil
cooler.(AMM PART I 149-90)

APU FUEL SYSTEM – FUEL CONTROL UNIT – FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION

Fuel Solenoid Valve

The fuel solenoid valve controls the fuel flow from the fuel control
unit. The fuel solenoid valve is spring loaded closed.

During APU start, the ECU energizes the solenoid at 7 percent


speed. This opens the fuel solenoid valve.

During shutdown, the ECU deenergizes the solenoid. The fuel


solenoid valve closes. This shutdown sequence is the same for
normal or protective shutdown.

Fuel Temperature Sensor

The fuel temperature sensor is a resistive temperature device


(RTD). The fuel temperature sensor gives a fuel temperature
signal to the ECU.

ENGINE TACHOMETER SYSTEM – GENERAL DESCRIPTION

Purpose

The engine tachometer system supplies the engine low pressure


rotor (N1) and the engine high pressure rotor (N2) speed signals
to these components:

- Electronic engine control (EEC)


- Display electronics units (DEUs)
- Engine airborne vibration monitoring (AVM) signal
conditioner.

General Description

The EEC receives two analog signals from each speed sensor
and changes these analog signals to digital signals.

The EEC uses the two signals for channel A and channel B
operation. Each channel sends data to each DEU on an ARINC
429 data bus.

Usually, the DEUs use input from the EEC to show N1 and N2
on the common display system (CDS). The DEUs can also use
input directly from the speed sensors to show N1 and N2.

The AVM signal conditioner receives an analog input from the


speed sensors to help calculate vibration levels. See the AVM

AVM SYSTEM – COMPONENT LOCATION

General

The AVM system has two vibration sensors (accelerometers) on


the engine and one signal conditioner in the EE compartment.

Vibration Sensors

The number 1 bearing vibration sensor is inside the engine. You


cannot see this sensor with the engine on the airplane. You get
access to this sensor during engine overhaul. An electrical
connector attaches to this sensor wiring at the fan case. This
connection is aft of the engine oil tank, just above the engine
nameplate.

The fan frame compressor case vertical (FFCCV) vibration


sensor is on the rear fan frame at the 3:00 position. You open the
right fan cowl and the right thrust reverser cowl to get access to
this sensor.

AVM Signal Conditioner

The AVM signal conditioner is on the E3-2 shelf.

reverse thrust. The solenoids energize when the T/R sleeves are
60% of travel to the full deploy position. Each EEC controls one
of the solenoids. See the thrust reverser control section for more
information. (AMM PART I 78-34)

Reverse Thrust Interlock Solenoids

There are two reverse thrust interlock solenoids, one for each
thrust lever assembly. They are a rotary solenoid type. Each
reverse thrust interlock solenoid uses a rod to operate a latch.
When you move a reverse thrust lever to the DEPLOY position, a
contour on the brake mechanism catches the latch. This stops
the rotation of the brake mechanism and limits the motion of the
reverse thrust lever and the reverse thrust lever moves enough
to operate switches to command the thrust reverser deployment.
When the EEC energizes the reverse thrust interlock solenoid,
the latch disengages. This permits the motion of the reverse
thrust lever towards the full reverse thrust position.

Functional Description

Each solenoid connects to both channels of the EEC. The EEC


receives the T/R translating sleeves position data from the LVDT

ENGINE AIR – INTRODUCTION

Purpose EGT - exhaust gas temperature


MU - hydromechanical unit
The engine air system has these control functions: HPC - high pressure compressor
HPT - high pressure turbine
- Turbine clearance HPTACC - high pressure turbine active clearance control
- Compressor airflow. LPC - low pressure compressor
LPT - low pressure turbine
Turbine Clearance Control LPTACC - low pressure turbine active clearance control
LVDT - linear variable differential transformer
The engine air system adjusts the clearances between the high PO - aircraft static air pressure
pressure turbine (HPT) blades and shroud and the low pressure PT - aircraft total air pressure
turbine (LPT) blades and shroud. Usually, the engine air system RVDT - rotary variable differential transformer
decreases the clearance between the rotors and the turbine TAT - aircraft total air temperature
case. This helps the engine use less fuel. The engine air system TBV - transient bleed valve
also increases the clearance between the high pressure turbine TRA - thrust lever resolver angle
blades and shroud during some power conditions. This makes T3 - compressor discharge air temperature

ENGINE AIR – GENERAL DESCRIPTION

Compressor Airflow Control

These are the compressor airflow control subsystems:

- Variable stator vanes (VSVs)


- Variable bleed valve (VBV).

The VSV system controls the high pressure compressor (HPC)


airflow. The VSV system makes sure the correct quantity of air
flows through to the HPC which prevents HPC stall. The VSV
system controls the HPC inlet guide vanes and the variable
stator vanes of the HPC. The first three stages of the HPC have
variable stator vanes.

The VBV system controls the low pressure compressor (LPC)


discharge airflow. There are 12 variable bleed valves that let
some LPC discharge air bypass the engine and mix with the fan
discharge air. This airflow prevents LPC stall during fast
deceleration. The VBVs also keep water out of the HPC and
prevent foreign object damage (FOD) during low speed operation
and during reverse thrust operation.

IGNITION – INTRODUCTION

General

The ignition systems supply electrical sparks in the combustion


chamber for combustion. Each engine has two ignition systems
that operate independently. The ignition system usually operates
manually. However, the ignition systems operate automatically
when the electronic engine control (EEC) sees a possible engine
flameout condition.

You use ignition during these times:

- Ground start
- Takeoff and landings
- In-flight (during heavy turbulence or bad weather) In-flight
start.

IGNITION – GENERAL DESCRIPTION

General systems receive 115v ac from ac transfer bus 1 and the ac


standby bus.
These components control ignition:

- Start levers
- Start switches
- Ignition selector switch
- Electronic engine control (EEC).

The start lever controls ignition system power to the EEC. The
start switch and the ignition selector switch supply inputs to the
EEC. The EEC uses these inputs to supply power to the ignition
exciters. The ignition exciters supply power to the spark igniters.

The engine starting system also uses the switch positions for
control.

See the engine starting chapter for more information.(AMM


PART 180)

Electrical Power

The EEC has internal switches that control the 115v ac to the
ignition exciters. The ignition exciters change the 115v ac input
to a dc voltage of approximately 15,000 to 20,000v for the spark
igniters. The spark igniters give a spark for combustion.

The ignition systems of engine 2 receive ac power from ac

automatically if the EEC sees a possible engine flameout
condition. See the functional description page in this section for
more information about this function.

Enqine Start Switch Position (CONT)

The flight crew may turn the engine start switch to the CONT
position at these times:

- Takeoff
- Approach
- Landing
- Bad Weather.

The spark igniters, as selected by the ignition selector switch,


turn on and operate continuously when the switch is in this
position.

Enqine Start Switch Position (FLT)

Both spark igniters operate continuously when you turn the


engine start switch to FLT position. The EEC does not use the
ignition selector switch position information.

The major components of the turbine exhaust system are the


exhaust nozzle and the exhaust plug.

Thrust Reverser System

The thrust reverser (T/R) system changes the direction of the fan
air exhaust to help create reverse thrust. The flight crew uses
reverse thrust to slow the airplane after landing or during a
rejected takeoff (RTO). The turbine exhaust airflow direction
does not change during reverse thrust. The T/R system has a
electro-hydraulic control system and an indicating system.

The T/R system has two thrust reversers. T/R 1 is the thrust
reverser for engine 1 (left). T/R 2 is the thrust reverser for engine
2 (right).

THRUST REVERSER – TENSION LATCHES

Purpose

The tension latches hold the T/R halves together.

General

There are six tension latches for each T/R. Numbers identify
each latch. Latch number one is the latch most forward. Latch
number six is the latch most aft. All latches are interchangeable.

Location

All tension latches are at the bottom of the T/R halves. The latch
handles and mechanisms are on the left T/R half. The latch
keeper pins are on the right T/R half.

Training Information Point

Always open the latches in order from aft (No.6) to forward


(No.1).

Always close the latches in order from forward (No.1) to aft


(No.6).

You use the latch lever tool (special tool) to help bring the T/R
halves together. This makes it easy to close the tension latches.

THRUST REVERSER – DEACTIVATION FOR FLIGHT DISPATCH – TRAINING INFORMATION POINTS

General

Each T/R translating sleeve has two deactivation points. You


install two pins at these points to deactivate the T/R for airplane
dispatch.

Each translating sleeve has two holes at the deactivation points.


Rubber plugs are usually in these holes. You remove these plugs
before you install the pins. The pins are usually in the fly away
kit.

The pins mechanically connect the translating sleeve structure to


the stable cascade support ring. This prevents the movement of
the T/R sleeve.

Be sure to follow the thrust reverser deactivation for flight

THRUST REVERSER CONTROL SYSTEM – FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION – DEPLOY/STOW HYDRAULIC FLOW

Training Information Point

There is no hydraulic return to the standby system for T/R 1.


There is a transfer of hydraulic fluid from the standby system to
system A during stow if the standby system deploys the T/R.

There is no similar transfer of hydraulic fluid for T/R 2 operation.
