  • Closing Devices and Nozzles (Mechanical Components)
DEF

The fuel delivery to the aircraft may be either by gravity (overwing) or pressure (underwing) refuelling.

CONT

Aircraft fueling nozzles have a... high flow rate and are typically equipped with a strainer inside the nozzle spout designed to remove rust or other impurities that may have entered the fueling stream. Many fueling nozzles are fitted with a ring, attached around the end of the nozzle spout, that protects the wing of the airplane from accidental damage while the fueling operation is in progress.

Relier la tresse de métallisation de la buse de ravitaillement à l'aéronef avant d'enlever le bouchon du réservoir. Si la buse n'a pas de tresse de métallisation, toucher le bouchon du réservoir à l'aide de la buse avant d'enlever le bouchon. Pendant le ravitaillement, la buse doit demeurer en contact avec le col de remplissage du réservoir afin de neutraliser toute accumulation de charges électrostatiques.

  • Cellule d'aéronefs
OBS

Voilure bilongeron avec caisson de torsion intermédiaire. C'est la solution la plus répandue pour la construction des voilures évidemment, mais aussi pour les empennages horizontaux et verticaux. Elle est caractérisée par la présence de deux longerons situés de part et d'autre du maître-couple du profil réunis entre eux par des parois de revêtement raidies longitudinalement [...]

OBS

La voilure désigne l'ensemble des ailes. Chaque aile prise individuellement est appelée demi-voilure.

Record 6 2008-04-01

English

Subject field(s)
  • Electrical Appliances and Equipment
  • Aircraft Systems
DEF

A large group of electrical wires individually tagged, clipped together and then attached as a unit to structure, usually in wireway.

CONT

A wiring harness [is] an assembly of electrical wiring bundles.

OBS

An electrical wiring harness typically comprises a bundle of individual wires of varying gauges, impedances, and types, all arranged in a particular order. These wiring harnesses are typically bound together in order to facilitate the installation, repair and maintenance of the wires, and the connection of multiple remote systems. ... In the aircraft industry, for example, wiring harnesses are used to interconnect the various electrical components and subassemblies of the multitude of systems located within an aircraft.

OBS

The operation and integrity of insulated conductors forming a core or wire bundle in an aircraft environment must be maintained, otherwise a resulting transmission of erroneous data through the wire bundles may occur. In a severe environment of increased temperatures, such as inside the leading edge of a wing, a thermal barrier installed over the wire bundles can afford the protection needed.

PHR

Wire bundle assembly, clamp, insulation.

PHR

Burn-out, stationary wire bundle.

PHR

Aircraft wiring harness.

  • Flight Instruments and Equipment (Aeroindustry)
DEF

[A] sensitive detector giving electrical signal proportional to intensity of external magnetic field acting along its axis, used as sensing element of most remote-indicating compasses; ...

CONT

The gyrosyn compass system incorporates a flux valve that senses the earth's magnetic lines of force through electromagnetic induction. They induce a voltage in the coils of a sensing unit in the flux valve... The flux valve is pendullously installed(to keep it horizontal) inside a case filled with damping fluid, usually in a wing tip, remote from local magnetic disturbances in the airframe.

OBS

flux valve [; fluxvalve]: British terminology for flux gate.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Instruments scientifiques
  • Mesures de grandeurs magnétiques
  • Instruments et équipement de bord (Constructions aéronautiques)
CONT

Le système de gyrocompas comprend notamment une sonde magnétométrique qui perçoit les lignes magnétiques terrestres par induction électromagnétique. Les lignes magnétiques produisent un voltage dans le détecteur de la sonde magnétique. [...] La sonde magnétométrique est suspendue, tel un pendule (afin de la garder horizontale), à l'intérieur d'un boîtier rempli d'un liquide amortissant. Elle est habituellement installée au bout de l'aile, à l'écart des perturbations magnétiques locales de la cellule.
