OVERSPEED STOP [3 records]

Record 1 2008-08-04

English

Subject field(s)
  • Aircraft Systems
CONT

Overspeed conditions can occur in an engine for a number of reasons, such as for example, a sudden unforeseeable reduction in the engine load, a failure in the metering valve of the engine's fuel delivery system, or an erroneous signal from an associated electronic engine control(EEC) which modulates the metering valve to an excessively high flow setting. It is known to provide an overspeed protection system that monitors a speed of the engine, such as the rotational speed of the power turbine of a gas turbine engine, and upon detection of an overspeed condition will reduce or stop the flow of fuel to the engine from the fuel delivery system.

PHR

Equipment used in an opening (raise) that is mined upward.

CONT

The raise is developed with an Alimak raise climber. Prior to the excavation of the raise, a pilot hole is drilled in the ore and the raise is driven following that pilot hole. Ideally, to facilitate the drilling, the excavation of the raise slightly overcuts the hanging wall, allowing to drill holes parallel to the hanging wall.

CONT

A power driven raise climber must be equipped with an overspeed safety device approved by the manufacturer that will stop and hold the climber if it travels faster that its design speed;...
