AIR SYSTEM DESCRIPTION/OPERATION (2)

LOW PRESSURE TURBINE CLEARANCE CONTROL
(LPTCC)
The Low Pressure Turbine Clearance Control (LPTCC) system uses fan
discharge air to cool the LPT case during engine operation, in order to
control the LPT rotor to stator clearances. It also protects the turbine case
from over-temperature by monitoring the EGT.
This ensures the best performance of the LPT at all engine ratings.
The LPTCC system is a closed loop system, which regulates the cooling
airflow sent to the LPT case, through a valve and a manifold.
A dual RVDT sensor is installed at one end of the butterfly valve shaft
and supplies the feedback signal to the ECU.
