Record 1 2012-10-03

English

Subject field(s)
  • Aeronautical Engineering and Maintenance
  • Aircraft Systems
CONT

Pressure fueling shutoff valves are installed between the fueling manifold and its branch lines. The branch lines direct fuel into each fuel tank. The pressure fueling shutoff valves control the flow of fuel from the fueling manifold to its branch lines. A defueling valve connects the engine fuel feed manifold with the pressure fueling manifold.

CONT

The transfer element ... supplies fuel from the fuselage bladder cell through the pressure fueling manifold to the wing tanks.

Record 8 2000-04-28

English

Subject field(s)
  • Burners and Steamfitting
DEF

A period of time after the run period during which the burner motor(blower or fan) continues to run, driving all the products of combustion and any unburned fuel from the combustion chamber, and supplying air to burn fuel being purged from the fuel line downstream from the safety shutoff valve.

CONT

When the burner is shut off for any reason, the program controller causes the forced draft fan to continue delivering air for a specified time to post-purge the unit of any atomized oil and combustible gases. This post-purge should amount to at least two air changes in the combustion area, gas passages, and breeching.
