Propeller
How is aircraft electrical power for propeller deicer systems transferred from the engine to the propeller hub assembly?
By slip rings and brushes.
Is used to monitor the mechanical integrity of the turbines, as well as to check engine operating conditions of a turbine engine?
Exhaust gas temperature
the volume and smoothness of the airflow through engine compartments.
What are Fire Zones
What is always the final step when degreasing a metal engine part with a soap and water or chemical solution?
Respray the part with oil.
What is the purpose of a power check on a reciprocating aircraft engine?
To determine satisfactory performance.
On most reciprocating multiengine aircraft, automatic propeller synchronization is accomplished through the actuation of the
propeller governors.
contains a minimum checklist for 100-hour inspections of engines?
14 CFR Part 43 Appendix D
Special dry powders are available for use whenever these types of fires occur
What are Class D Fires
Such compounds, in addition to being potentially corrosive to aluminum and magnesium, may become impregnated in the pores of the metal and cause oil foaming when the engine is returned to service
What is solutions containing soap to clean or degreaser engine parts
If only one cylinder is to be continuously monitored for cylinder head temperature, what determines which cylinder is to monitored?
The cylinder seen as the hottest during previous tests.
?????
The engine manufacturer's maintenance manual
The airframe manufacturer's maintenance manual.
Propeller fluid anti-icing systems generally use
Isopropyl alcohol
Lists the engines to which a given propeller is adaptable?
Propeller Type Certificate Data Sheets.
the operating principle of the spot detector sensor in a fire detection system?
\What is a bimetallic thermal switch that closes when heated to a high temperature.
the cylinder walls of a normally operating engine will show the greatest amount of wear
Near the top of the cylinder
Fuel flow on many light aircraft with reciprocating engines is measured
What is a pressure-based flow meter.
The angle of attack of a propeller blade is the difference between its
chord line and the relative wind.
Indentations on bearing races caused by high static loads are known as
brinelling.
The safest fire‑extinguishing agent to use from a standpoint of toxicity and corrosion hazards?
Bromotriflouromethane (Halon 1301)
Grinding the valves of a reciprocating engine to a feathered edge is likely to result in
Pre-Ignition and burned valves
If detonation in a reciprocating engine is suspected, the correct action is to
enrichen the mixture.
Geometric pitch of a propeller is defined as
effective pitch plus slippage
Which component of a piston engine would be the most susceptible to the defect known as "pitting"?
Bearing races.
These systems will not test good if the detector element is broken. Both systems, however, will still detect a fire.
What are Kidde and Fenway Continuous Loop fire detection systems
Once an aircraft cylinder wall is ground to an oversize, during overhaul,
When to resurfaced or honed to the desired finish.
The burning of the fuel/air mixture in the exhaust manifold after the mixture has passed through the exhaust
What is After Firing
