AER 2004 - Powerplant Fuel Systems


2 cr

A properly functioning engine fuel metering system is critical to the safety of an aircraft engine. Students will learn the theory of operation behind piston and turbine engine metering systems to include float and pressure carburetors, fuel injection systems, hydro mechanical and FADEC (Full Authority Digital Engine Control). As many of these units are precision assemblies, students will learn which units can and can’t be repaired. Moving forward, removal/replacement, disassembly/reassembly, inspection and adjustment will be discussed and practiced.

Lecture/Lab: 1 hour of lecture, 1 hour of lab
