    ( Word to PDF Converter - Unregistered ) http://www.Word-to-PDF-Converter.net LANDING GEAR LANDING GEAR SYSTEMS Learning Objective: Identify the various types of landing gear systems used on fixed-wing and rotary-wing aircraft. Every aircraft maintained in today is equipped with a landing gear system. Most aircraft also use arresting and catapult gear. The landing gear is that portion of the aircraft that supports the weight of the aircraft while it is on the ground. The landing gear contains components that are necessary for taking off and landing the aircraft safely. Some of these com-ponents are landing gear struts that absorb landing and taxiing shocks; brakes that are used to stop and, in some cases, steer the aircraft; nosewheel steering for steering the aircraft; and in some cases, nose catapult com-ponents that provide the aircraft with carrier deck takeoff capabilities. FIXED-WING AIRCRAFT Landing gear systems in fixed-wing aircraft are similar in design. Most aircraft are equipped with the tricycle-type retractable landing gear. Some types of landing gear are actuated in different sequences and directions, but practically all are hydraulically operated and electrically controlled. With a knowledge of basic hydraulics and familiarity with the operation of actuating system components, you should be able to understand the operational and troubleshooting procedures for landing gear systems. Main Landing Gear The typical aircraft landing gear assembly consists of two main landing gears and one steerable nose landing gear. As you can see in figure Figure 12-1.–Tricycle landing gear. is installed under each wing. Because aircraft are different in size, shape, and construction, every landing gear is specially designed.

  • Ao403 Module 1
    JCET/AERO AO403 MODULE 1 AO403 AIRCRAFT SYSTEMS AND INSTRUMENTS MODULE 1 1. HYDRAULIC SYSTEMS Hydraulic systems in aircraft provide a means for the operation of aircraft components like landing gear, flaps, flight control surfaces, and brakes. Fig: Typical Hydraulic System Reservoir: Stores the supply of hydraulic fluid for operation of the system. It replenishes the system fluid when needed and provides room for thermal expansion. Pump : It is necessary to create a flow of fluid. Filter: removes foreign particles from the hydraulic fluid, preventing dust, or other undesirable matter from entering the system. 1 JCET/AERO AO403 MODULE 1 Pressure Regulator: Unloads or relieves the power-driven pump when the desired pressure in the system is reached. Thus, it is often referred to as an unloading valve. Accumulator: It serves a twofold purpose: . It acts as a shock absorber by maintaining an even pressure in the system. It stores enough fluid under pressure to provide for emergency operation of certain actuating units. Check valves: Allow the flow of fluid in one direction only. Pressure gage: Indicates the amount of hydraulic pressure in the system. Relief valve: Safety valve installed in the system to bypass fluid through the valve back to the reservoir in case excessive pressure is built up in the system. Selector valve: Used to direct the flow of fluid. These valves are normally actuated by solenoids or manually operated, either directly or indirectly through use of mechanical linkage. Actuating cylinder: Converts fluid pressure into useful work by linear or reciprocating mechanical motion. 1.1 Advantages of Hydraulic system • Large load capacity with almost high accuracy and precision.

  • Stability and Performance of Propulsion Control Systems with Distributed Control Architectures and Failures
    STABILITY AND PERFORMANCE OF PROPULSION CONTROL SYSTEMS WITH DISTRIBUTED CONTROL ARCHITECTURES AND FAILURES DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Rohit K. Belapurkar, M.S. Graduate Program in Aeronautical and Astronautical Engineering The Ohio State University 2012 Dissertation Committee: Prof. Rama K. Yedavalli, Advisor Prof. Meyer Benzakein Prof. Krishnaswamy Srinivasan Copyright by Rohit K. Belapurkar 2012 ABSTRACT Future aircraft engine control systems will be based on a distributed architecture, in which, the sensors and actuators will be connected to the controller through an engine area network. Distributed engine control architecture enables the use of advanced control techniques along with achieving weight reduction, improvement in performance and lower life cycle cost. The performance of distributed engine control system is predominantly dependent on the performance of communication network. Due to serial data transmission, time delays are introduced between the sensor/actuator nodes and distributed controller. Although these random transmission time delays are less than the control system sampling time, they may degrade the performance of the control system or in worst case, may even destabilize the control system. Network faults may result in data dropouts, which may cause the time delays to exceed the control system sampling time. A comparison study was conducted for selection of a suitable engine area network. A set of guidelines are presented in this dissertation based on the comparison study. Three different architectures for turbine engine control system based on a distributed framework are presented. A partially distributed engine control system for a turbo-shaft engine is designed based on ARINC 825, a general standardization of Controller Area Network (CAN).

  • Transient Performance Simulation of Aircraft Engine Integrated with Fuel and Control Systems
    Transient Performance Simulation of Aircraft Engine Integrated with Fuel and Control Systems C. Wang1 and Y.G. Li2 School of Aerospace, Transport and Manufacturing, Cranfield University, Bedford, UK B.Y. Yang3 Beijing HangKe Engine Control System Technology Co. Ltd., Beijing, China ABSTRACT A new method for the simulation of gas turbine fuel systems based on an inter- component volume method has been developed. It is able to simulate the performance of each of the hydraulic components of a fuel system using physics-based models, which potentially offers more accurate results compared with those using transfer functions. A transient performance simulation system has been set up for gas turbine engines based on an inter-component volume (ICV) method. A proportional-integral (PI) control strategy is used for the simulation of engine controller. An integrated engine and its control and hydraulic fuel systems has been set up to investigate their coupling effect during engine transient processes. The developed simulation system has been applied to a model aero engine. The results show that the delay of the engine transient response due to the inclusion of the fuel system model is noticeable although relatively small. The developed method is generic and can be applied to any other gas turbines and their control and fuel systems. Key Words: Gas turbine, engine, control, transient performance, fuel system, simulation Nomenclature A = area (m2) B = bulk modulus (Pa) 1 PhD student, School of Aerospace, Transport and Manufacturing, Cranfield University. 2 Senior Lecturer, School of Aerospace, Transport and Manufacturing, Cranfield University. 3 Senior Engineer, Beijing HangKe Engine Control System Technology Co.
