1. What is the purpose of the flow divider in a turbine engine duplex fuel nozzle?

Creates primary and


secondary fuel supplies
2. Fuel heater purpose? A fuel heater prevents. LP filter icing.
3. FADEC Full Authority Digital Engine Control
4. Electronic/hydromechanical fuel system? Both hydromechanical and electronic fuel control units
are in use today.
5. In a FADEC engine with a hydromechanical fuel system, how is fuel flow controlled? By electro-
hydraulic servo valves (E.H.S.Vs).

6. Bernoulli's principle states that an increase in the speed of a fluid occurs simultaneously with a
decrease in static pressure or a decrease in the fluid's potential energy
7. Engine vibration is monitored using. piezoelectric accelerometer
8. Engine vibration monitoring unit purpose?
9. Turbofan starts with? by blowing air from another source against the rotor blades, thereby turning them
(High pressure spool turning only) started by either air turbine or electrical starters. Air-turbine starters
use compressed air from an external source as discussed earlier
10. Amber indication means? Parameter within limits but needs to be monitored by the flight crew

Amber: Indicates that a system is failed.


Red: Indicates a failure that may require immediate corrective action.
Green: Indicates that a system operates normally.
Blue: Indicates the normal operation of a temporarily selected system.
