Explanation

The minimum reduction gearbox oil pressure in low speed ground idle (LSGI) is 50psi. This pressure is necessary to ensure proper lubrication and operation of the gearbox at low speeds. Any pressure lower than this could lead to insufficient lubrication and potential damage to the gearbox components.

88. What is flight idle RPM?

Explanation

Flight idle RPM refers to the range of engine RPM (revolutions per minute) at which an aircraft's engine operates during idle or low-power settings while in flight. This range allows for a stable and controlled descent or level flight without the need for additional power. The correct answer, 92.5-100.5%, indicates the acceptable range of RPM for flight idle, ensuring the engine remains within the desired parameters for safe and efficient operation.

89. Take off turbine inlet temperature is?

Explanation

The correct answer is 1067-1083C. This range represents the turbine inlet temperature during takeoff. Turbine inlet temperature is an important parameter in aviation as it affects the performance and efficiency of the engine. The higher the temperature, the more power the engine can produce, but it also puts more stress on the engine components. Therefore, the turbine inlet temperature during takeoff is carefully monitored to ensure optimal performance and safety.

90. What is the normal anti-ice operating range?

Explanation

The normal anti-ice operating range is 75-200 F. This means that the anti-ice system should be activated when the temperature falls within this range to prevent ice formation on the aircraft. Temperatures below 75 F may not require anti-ice activation, while temperatures above 200 F may not be effective for ice prevention.

Submit
91. What is the allowable prop flux below crossover?

Explanation

The allowable prop flux below crossover is 1.5%. This means that the maximum allowable flux of propellant below the crossover point, where the propellant flow switches from one propellant to another, is 1.5% of the total propellant flow. This restriction ensures that the propellant mixture remains within safe limits and prevents any potential issues or instability in the propulsion system.

Submit
92. What is the maximum allowable oil pressure in the power section during starting and warm-up?

Explanation

During starting and warm-up, the maximum allowable oil pressure in the power section is between 50-100psi. This range ensures that the oil pressure is sufficient to lubricate the engine components and provide proper functioning without causing any damage or excessive wear. It allows for a gradual increase in oil pressure as the engine warms up, ensuring smooth operation and preventing any potential issues that could arise from low or high oil pressure.
