links.


Combined Nozzle Assembly (CNA)

Purpose
The CNA allows the mixing of the hot and cold stream gas
flows to produce the resultant thrust. This mixing of the hot
and cold gas streams within the CNA reduces the thermal
shear effect of the gases exiting the propelling nozzle to
atmosphere. Additionally, acoustic properties of the CNA
minimise still further the noise levels produced by the gas
stream. This system results in the V2500 being one of the
quietest engines in its class. An important factor as current
and future legislation regarding noise pollution at airports
is becoming a major issue.
Location
The CNA is bolted to the rear flange of the turbine exhaust
casing. There is no fixing to the bottom of the pylon.
Description
The CNA:
Forms the exhaust unit.
Mixes the hot and cold gas streams and ejects the
combined flow to atmosphere through a single
propelling nozzle.
Completes the engine nacelle.

Bearing Compartments
Front Compartment
The Nos 1, 2 and 3 bearings are located in the front

bearing compartment which is at the centre of the
intermediate module (32).
The compartment is sealed using air supported carbon

seals, plus an oil filled (Hydraulic) seal between the H.P.
and L.P. shafts. The 8th stage compressor air supports
this seal.
Adequate pressure drops across the seals to ensure

satisfactory sealing are achieved by venting the
compartment, by an external tube to the de-oiler.
Gearbox Drive
The HP Stubshaft, which is located axially by the Number

3 Bearing, has at its front end a bevel drive gear which,
through the Tower Shaft provides the drive for the Main
Accessory Gearbox.
The HP Stubshaft separates from the HP Compressor

Module at the Curvic Coupling and remains as part of the
Intermediate Module.

Bearing Compartments
Front Compartment (Continued)
The drawing below shows details of the Number 2 and

Number 3 Bearings.
A Phonic Wheel is fitted to the LP Stub Shaft; this interacts

with speed probes to provide LP Shaft speed signals (N1)
to the Engine Electronic Control (EEC) (see section 11
Engine Indicating). A speed signal is also provided to the
Engine Vibration Monitoring Unit (EVMU), which is located
in the Aircraft Avionics Compartment.
The Hydraulic Seal prevents oil leakage from the

compartment passing rearwards between the H.P. and
L.P. shafts.
The Number 3 Bearing is hydraulically damped. The outer

race is supported by a series of eighteen spring rods,
which allow some slight radial movement of the bearing.
The bearing is centralised by rods and any radial
movement is dampened by oil pressure fed to an annulus
around the bearing outer race.
The gearbox gear is splined onto the H.P. shaft and

retained by the Number 3 Bearing Nut.
Revision 2 Page 3-7

Revision 2 Page 3-8

No 4 (Centre) Bearing Compartment
The No 4 bearing compartment is situated in an inherently

hostile, high temperature and pressure environment at the
centre of the combustion section.
The bearing compartment is shielded from radiated heat

by a heat shield and an insulating supply of relatively cool
air.
This supply of cooled air (called 'buffer air') is admitted to

the space between the chamber and first heat shield.
The buffer air is exhausted from the cooling spaces close

to the upstream side of the carbon seals, creating an area
of cooler air from which the sealing function is obtained.
This results in an acceptable temperature of the air flowing
across the face of the carbon seals into the bearing
compartment.
Restrictors at the outlet from the cooling passage control

buffer airflow rates.
The bearing compartment internal pressure level is

determined by the area of the variable scavenge valve.
(No 4 Bearing Scavenge Valve described in the oil
system). Essentially this valve acts as a variable flow
restrictor in the No 4 Bearing Compartment vent line.
Revision 2 Page 3-9


No 5 Bearing (Rear) Bearing Compartment
The rear bearing compartment is located at the centre of

the L.P. turbine module (module 50) and houses the No 5
bearing which supports the L.P. turbine rotor.
An air supported (Stage 8) carbon seal seals the

compartment at the front end. At the rear is a simple cover
plate, with an O ring type seal, secured by twelve bolts.
Inside the compartment sealing is achieved on the LP
shaft end by a small disc type plug, with a spring
supported jacket cup ring seal secured by a double helix
spring clip. There are no air or oil flows down the LP shaft.
Separate venting is not necessary for this compartment

because with only one carbon seal, the airflow induced by
the scavenge pump provides the required pressure drop
across the seal.
The pressure supply and scavenge oil pipes are covered

by an insulating heat shield material.


Engine Internal Cooling and Sealing Airflows Buffer air is used to provide:

Nose Cone
The Glass-fibre cone smoothes the airflow into the fan. It is
secured to the front blade-retaining ring by 24 bolts. A
Fairing is attached to the front blade-retaining ring by 6
bolts.
Note:
Balance weights must not be placed at these 6 bolt
locations on the fairing.
The Nose Cone is balanced during manufacture by
applying weights to its inside surface.
The nose cone is un-heated. A soft rubber cone tip
provides ice protection. As ice builds up on the tip, it
becomes un-balanced and flexes. This causes the ice to
be dislodged from the rubber tip and is then ingested by
the fan before it has built up to a significant mass. The
Nose Cone retaining bolt flange is faired by a titanium
fairing which is secured by six bolts.
The arrangement is shown below.
Note:
Take care when removing the Nose Cone retaining bolts.
Balance weights may be fitted to some of the bolts. The
position of these bolts with their respective weights must
be marked before removal, so as to ensure they are
refitted to the same position.

Front Blade Retaining Ring

The Assembly is shown below.
The Front Blade Retaining Ring is secured to the Fan Disk
by a ring of 36 bolts. A second (outer ring) passes through
the retaining ring and permits the individual securing of the
Annulus Fillers by 22 bolts.
Both these sets of bolts must be removed before
attempting to remove the Front Blade Retaining Ring.
After the removal of the 22 annulus filler securing bolts and
all 36 retaining ring bolts, it is possible to remove the front
blade retaining ring by the use of 6 pusher bolts being
inserted into 6 threaded holes designed specifically for this
purpose.
Note:
The fan blades and annulus filler positions are not
identified. For this reason it is important to identify and
make a note of the original blade and annulus filler
positions prior to their removal.
When the Nose Cone is fitted, it is possible to identify the
positions of blades numbers 1,2 and 3 by noting that the
front blade retaining ring has etched on its outer edge
these blade number positions. These numbers are marked
in a counter-clockwise direction when viewing the engine
from the front.
Having established the original positions of the blades it is
important to number the blades and their corresponding
annulus filler by using an approved marker pen (Material
VS 06-69 ref 70-30-00).

Annulus Fillers
After removal of the Front Blade retaining ring the Annulus
Fillers can be removed as follows:
lift the front end of the Annulus Filler 3 to 4 inches
twist the Annulus Filler through about 60 degrees
counter-clockwise
draw the Annulus Filler forward to clear the blades
Remove the annulus fillers on either side of the blade to be
removed. The blade to be removed can than be pulled
forward to clear the dovetail slot in the fan disc.
Examine the outer surface of the Annulus Filler for cracks,
nicks, dents and scores.
Limits in the AMM can be applied to assess the damage for
accept or reject.
If the surface coating of the annulus filler is damaged to the
point of requiring a repair the AMM has a procedure that
allows this to be done.
AMM ref 72-31-11-300-010 gives comprehensive instructions
as to the correct procedure for repair.


Annulus Fillers
Caution:
When re-fitting the Annulus Fillers, it is extremely
important that correct location of the Annulus Fillers into
the Rear Retaining Ring is achieved.
If the Annulus Filler is not correctly installed, it is possible
that when the Front Retaining Ring is subsequently torque
tightened in place onto the Fan Disk, it may result in the
deformation and displacement of the Rear Retaining Ring.
This could cause it to come into contact with the inlet
housing of LP Compressor Module.

Fan Blade Repairs

Detailed information regarding the repair of damage on the
Low Pressure Compressor (LPC) Fan Blades by local
material removal can be found in the AMM Task (72-31-
11-300-016). Repair Scheme VRS1506.
Caution:
The maximum number of dressed blades for a
given Compressor Fan Blade set, is the equivalent of
three blades dressed to the maximum limit. The
remaining blades must not be dressed.
Titanium component You must use silicon carbide
type abrasive wheel stones and papers to dress, blend
and polish the Fan Blade.
Titanium component Do not use force with
mechanical cutters or the material will become too hot.
Titanium component If the material shows a
change in colour to darker than a light straw colour, the
Fan Blade is to be rejected.
Note:
The repair scheme VRS1506 allows scalloping of the
leading edge of the fan blade. Remove damage from the
airfoil surface and if damage is found in Zone AD then
you must blend parallel with the leading edge, by removing
material above the repaired area.


Fan Blade Root Dry Film Lubricant Inspection

AMM Task (72-31-11-200-012)
Examine the Blade Root of the Stage 1 Fan Blade for Dry
Film Lubricant peeling.
If the dry film lubricant shows any sign of peeling, carryout
a repair of the coating as per AMM recommendations.


Repair of Fan Blade Chocking Pads

AMM (72-31-11-300-019)
Repair Scheme Number VRS 1063
Should the Chocking Pads become detached from the Fan
Blade, it is possible to carryout a repair utilising the
referenced task above.
Background
VRS 1063 is an existing AMM repair for the reattachment
of LPC fan blade chocking pads, which can become
detached during engine running and during removal of fan
blades.
Early standard blades have pads which are bonded to the
fan blades using silicoset rubber compound and later
standard blades have stick-on pads which use a double
sided adhesive tape.

Repair of Fan Blade Chocking Pads

Note:
There are two methods of attaching the chocking pads to
the blade root:
Assembly A
AMM (72-31-11-300-019).
Repair Scheme Number VRS 1063.
This method uses primer for Silicoset (material no. V08-

(material no. V08-013). Essentially this method involves
gluing the pads onto the fan blade.
Assembly B
AMM (72-31-11-300-019).
Repair Scheme Number VRS 1063.
This method uses double-sided adhesive tape to affix the
pads to the blade.

Failures and Redundancy
Improved reliability is achieved by utilising dual sensors,
dual control channels, dual selectors and dual feedback.
Dual sensors are used to supply all EEC inputs except
pressures, (single pressure transducers within the EEC
provide signals to each channel - A and B).
The EEC uses identical software in each of the two
channels. Each channel has its own power supply,
processor, programme memory and input/output
functions. The mode of operation and the selection of
the channel in control is decided by the availability of
input signal and output controls.
Each channel normally uses its own input signals but
each channel can also use input signals from the other
channel required i.e. if it recognises faulty, or suspect,
inputs.
An output fault in one channel will cause switchover to
control from the other channel.
In the event of faults in both channels a pre-determined
hierarchy decides which channel is more capable of
control and utilises that channel.
In the event of loss of either channels, or loss of
electrical power, the systems are designed to go to the
fail safe positions.

It is important that the cooling shroud is orientated
correctly for the differing variant engines. The shroud must
be clamped with the arrow on the shroud aligned with the

with the number 2 indicated position.
With the arrow aligned make sure that the dowel on the

POWER MANAGEMENT

Power Management
Purpose
The power management system is designed to allow the
control of engine power by either manual or auto throttle
control.
Location
The aircraft throttle is located in the flight deck. This is in
reference to the TLA resolvers.
The EEC is engine intermediate case mounted. This is in
reference to the TRA signal that is derived from TLA.
Description
The throttle control lever (Thrust Lever) is based on the
"fixed throttle" concept; there is no motorised movement of
the throttle levers.
Each throttle control lever drives dual throttle resolvers;
each resolver output is dedicated to one EEC channel.
The throttle lever angle (TLA) is the input to the resolver.
The resolver output, which is fed to the EEC, is known as
the Throttle Resolver Angle (TRA).
The relationship between the throttle lever angle and the
throttle resolver angle is linear therefore:
1 deg TLA = 1.9 deg TRA
Revision 2 Page 6 - 1
Throttle Control Lever Mechanism

The throttle control mechanism for one engine is shown
below.
The control system consists of:
The throttle control lever.
The mechanical box.
The throttle control unit.
The throttle control lever movement is transmitted through
a rod to the mechanical box. The mechanical box
incorporates 'soft' detents, which provides selected engine
ratings, it also provides "artificial feel" for the throttle
control system.
A second rod to the throttle control unit transmits the
output from the mechanical box. The throttle control unit
incorporates two resolvers and six potentiometers.
Each resolver is dedicated to one EEC channel; the output
from the potentiometers provides T.L.A. signals to the
aircraft flight management computers.
A rig pin position is provided on the throttle control unit for
rigging the resolvers and potentiometers.
Bump Rating Push Button (A1 Engined Aircraft only)

In some cases (optional) the throttle control levers are Flexible Takeoff (A1 & A5 Engine Aircraft)
provided with "Bump" rating push buttons, one per engine. Definition of Flexible Takeoff:
This enables the EEC to be re-rated to provide additional
thrust capability for use during specific aircraft operations. In many instances, the aircraft takes off with a weight

EEC/Fuel System Interface

Purpose
To allow the throttle signal from the flight deck to be
received by the EEC. The EEC will convert this signal into
a fuel flow error in order to change the fuel flow for a
power level change.
Description
Movement of the pilots throttle control lever is sensed by
the dual resolvers, which signal the TRA to the EEC.
The EEC computes the fuel flow, which will produce the
required thrust.
The computed fuel flow request is converted to an
electrical current (I) which drives the torque motor in the
Fuel Metering Unit (FMU) which modulates fuel servo
pressure to move the Fuel Metering Valve (FMV) and sets
the fuel flow.
A dual resolver senses movement of the FMV, which is
located in the fuel metering unit next to the FMV.
The dual resolver translates the fuel metering valve
movement into an electrical feedback signal that is fed
back to the EEC.
Basic Control Loop N1 Reversion

The EEC uses closed loop control based on Engine In case of no EPR (either sensed or computed) available,
Pressure Ratio (EPR) or, N1 if EPR is unobtainable. an automatic reversion to N1 mode is provided.
EPR Closed Loop Control
The EEC computes a Target EPR as a function of:
TRA (Throttle Resolver Angle).
T amb (Ambient temperature).
T2 (Engine air inlet temperature).
Alt (Altitude).
Mn (Mach Number).
The EPR target is compared to the actual EPR to
determine the EPR error.
The EPR error is converted to a rate controlled fuel flow
command (WF), which is summed with the measured fuel
flow (WF actual) to produce the WF error.
The W.F. error is converted to a current (I), which is sent
to the FMU to drive the torque motor; this moves the FMV
to change the fuel flow. The change in fuel flow causes the
engine to accelerate/decelerate and brings about a
change in actual EPR.
This process continues until there is no EPR error.
Note:
The EEC controls the rate of change of fuel flow, and thus
acceleration/deceleration times, as a function of the rate of
change of HP Compressor Speed (N2).
Alternate Engine Control .

N1 Reversion
At the reversion to N1 mode (rated or unrated) an
equivalent thrust to that achieved in EPR mode is provided
until a thrust lever position change.
Note:
Autothrust control is lost.
Rated N1 Mode
An automatic reversion to rated N1 mode occurs if sensed
EPR. (Either P2 or P4.9) or any of the computed EPR
parameters are not available.
A manual selection of N1 mode on the push buttons on the
overhead panel selects rated N1 mode. (Note! The pilot is
instructed to select N1 rated thrust on both engines).
The N1 mode indication is displayed in blue on the upper
ECAM. Also displayed, is the N1 rating limit corresponding
to the thrust lever position.
Note:
This is not displayed in unrated N1 mode.
Unrated N1 Mode
Alternate Engine Control If in addition to losing EPR parameters either T2 or Altitude
N1 Reversion data is lost, then the EEC automatically reverts to unrated N1
thrust setting.
At the reversion to N1 mode (rated or unrated) an equivalent
thrust to that achieved in EPR mode is provided until a thrust The unrated N1 thrust setting requires the thrust to be set

The engine operates in one of three thrust modes: The memo mode is entered automatically, from Auto mode if;

Alpha Floor Protection

If an aircraft stall is imminent, the Auto Thrust System sets
the engine power to maximum, regardless of actual throttle
position. The thrust level that Alpha Floor Protection provides
is that equivalent to maximum EPR level at TOGA.
Note:
The conditions requiring Alpha Floor Protection to be invoked
are extremely rare, due to the circumstances which require its

Fuel System Operation

Fuel Metering Unit Description The feedback to the EEC of the valve operation is by a
micro switch.
A simplified schematic representation of the Fuel Metering
Unit is shown below. The pressure raising and shut of valve (PRSOV)

displacement transducer (RVDT). The spill valve is controlled by the pressure drop governor.
The overspeed valve The spill valve is designed to vary the excessive HP fuel
pressure return to the LP system.
The overspeed valve protects the engine against an
exceedance of;
N1 shaft speed.
N2 shaft speed.


Fuel metering Valve
Operation
Fuel metering is achieved by the Fuel Metering Valve and the
Pressure Drop Regulator and Spill Valve, which act together
in the following sequence:
Signals from the EEC cause the torque motor to change
position, which directs fuel servo pressure to re-position the
Fuel Metering Valve.
This changes the size of the metering orifice through which
the fuel passes which in turn changes the pressure drop
across the metering valve.
The change in the pressure drop is sensed by the Pressure
Drop Regulator which will re-position the spill valve and so
increase/decrease the fuel flow through the fuel metering
valve until the pressure drop is restored to its datum value.
The increase/decrease in fuel flow causes the engine to
accelerate/decelerate until the actual EPR is that demanded
by the EEC signal.
Movement of the Fuel Metering Valve is transmitted through a
rack and pinion mechanism to drive a dual output position
resolver. The resolver output is fed back to the EEC.
The EEC automatically corrects changes in fuel density. Bi-
metallic washers located in the pressure drop governor and
spill valve assembly provide automatic compensation for
changes in fuel temperature.


Fuel System Operation Note:

FMU Emergency Overspeed Protection Because of the fact that the overspeed valve is spring loaded
The Overspeed Valve is positioned down stream, in series, to the closed position, and opened by fuel pressure, the

Note: The PRSOV will remain open due to the small amount of fuel

100%.
The EEC will act through the Fuel Metering Valve to trim the
fuel flow if N1 or N2 reach 100%.
Operation
The overspeed valve is spring loaded to the closed position, it
is opened by increasing fuel pressure during engine start and
during normal engine operation is always fully open.
In the event of an overspeed condition (>109% N1 or
>105.7% N2 ) the EEC sends a signal to the overspeed valve
torque motor which changes position and directs HP fuel to
the top of the overspeed valve thus fully closing the valve.
A small by-pass flow is arranged around the overspeed valve
to prevent engine flame out.
The overspeed valve is hydraulically latched in the closed
position, thus preventing the engine from being accelerated.
The recommended procedure is for the flight crew to close the
engine down, and not re-start.
Closing down the engine is the only way to release the
hydraulic latching.


FMU Emergency Overspeed Protection

Should an Emergency Overspeed condition be experienced
and the engine has as a result exceeded 103% (either N1 or
N2) the engine must be removed.

engine starts, fuel is not passed to the fuel spray nozzles until
fuel pressures in the FMU are high enough to ensure the
control devices will function correctly.
The two position torque motor, which controls HP fuel
pressure to operate the PRSOV also, controls a spill valve
servo line.
When the torque motor is selected to close the PRSOV, to
shut down the engine, the spill valve servo line is opened.
This will fully open the spill valve and direct all the HP fuel
pump delivery back to the LP fuel system.
The PRSOV torque motor is commanded open by the EEC
during AUTO starts.
It is commanded open by the engine master switch during a
MANUAL start.
The PRSOV can be commanded closed by the EEC during an
AUTO start, if the EEC detects a fault in the start cycle.

Heat Management System Operation

The following are the four modes of control for the heat
management system. The system is fully automatic as
controlled by the EEC.
The four modes will be in effect when certain
aircraft/engine operating conditions exist.
Mode 1
This is the normal mode and is shown below. In this mode
all the heat from the engine oil system and the IDG oil
system is absorbed by the LP fuel flows. Some of the fuel
is returned to the aircraft tanks where the heat is absorbed
or dissipated within the tank.
This mode is maintained if the following conditions are
satisfied: -
Engine not at high power setting (Take Off and early
part of climb (not below 25,000ft).
Cooling spill fuel temperature less than 100 deg C.
Fuel temperature at pump inlet less than 54 deg C.


Heat Management System Mode 3

Mode 3 shown below is the mode that is adopted when the
requirements for fuel spill back to tank can no longer be
satisfied i.e.
Engine at high power setting (below 25,000ft).
Spill fuel temperature above limits (100 deg C).
Tank fuel temperature above limits (54 deg C).
In this condition the burned fuel absorbs all the heat from
the engine and I.D.G. oil systems. If however, the fuel flow
is too low to provide adequate cooling the engine oil will be
pre-cooled in the air/oil heat exchanger, by a modulated
air flow, before passing to the fuel/oil heat exchanger. This
is the preferred mode of operation, when return to tank is
not allowed



Mode 4 is the mode adopted when the burned fuel flow is
low. For example;
Low engine speeds.
High HP fuel pump inlet temperature.
In this mode the fuel/oil heat exchanger is operating as a
fuel cooler. The excessive heat is passed to the engine oil.
The ACOC extracts the heat from the oil that has been
heated up by the hot fuel.



Mode 5 is the mode that is used when the system
conditions demand operation as in mode 3, but is not
permitted due to;
IDG oil system temperature is excessive.
The fuel spill to the aircraft tank is not permitted
because of high spill fuel temperatures.
Mode 5 is the adopted position for the fail safe engine
conditions.

Compressor Airflow Control System

Introduction
Description/operation
The engine incorporates two air bleed systems and a
variable stator vane (V.S.V.) system, which together are
used to: -
Ensure stable airflow through the compressor at "off
design" conditions.
Ensure smooth, surge free, accelerations and
decelerations (transient conditions).
Improve engine-starting characteristics.
In re-stabilising the engine if surge occurs (surge
recovery).
The complete system comprises three sub-systems, which
are: -
An L.P. compressor air bleed located at engine station
2.5 and known as the Booster Stage Bleed Valve
(B.S.B.V.)
H.P. compressor air bleeds on stages 7 and 10.
The V.S.V. system which comprises variable inlet guide
vanes, at the inlet to the H.P. compressor, and 4
stages of variable stator vanes on the A1 and 3 stages
on A5 engines.
The EEC controls all three systems
A schematic overview of the complete airflow control

Booster Stage Bleed Valve

Component Description Actuators
The two B.S.B.V. actuators utilise H.P. fuel as a hydraulic
operating medium.
The actuators are located on the rear of the intermediate
casing on either side of the H.P. compressor, as shown
below.
Only one of the actuators, the one on the left hand side,
interfaces with the EEC This actuator is called the Master
actuator, the right hand side actuator is called the Slave
actuator.
The two actuators are hydraulically linked by two tubes,
which pass across the top of the H.P. compressor case.
The master actuator incorporates a Linear Variable
Differential Transducer (L.V.D.T.) which transmits actuator
positional information back to the EEC
The slave actuator incorporates two overload relief valves,
which prevent overpressurisation of the actuators in the
case of faults, such as a mechanically seized actuator.


BSBV Master Actuator Removal/Installation

Removal/installation of the master actuator is quite
straightforward.
The disconnection points are shown on the diagram below.
The following points should be noted: -
All sealing rings must be discarded on removal and
new sealing rings fitted on installation.
All threads should be lubricated with clean engine oil
on installation.
Observe the torque loading quoted in the maintenance
manual.
The bolt, which secures the actuator fork end to the
actuating rod, is "locked" by a double key washer. A
new washer must be used on installation.
Upon completion of the actuator change, carry out Test
No 1 or 3 - leak test, followed by Test No 11 - High
Power Assurance test.
The full procedure to remove/install the B.S.B.V. master
actuator can be found in the aircraft maintenance manual.

maintenance manual CH 75-31-43.


Variable Stator Vane System (VSV) A1

Introduction The actuator incorporates an LVDT which signals actuator
positional information back to the EEC.
Variable Incidence Stator Vanes control the entry of air
into the H.P. compressor. The variable vanes control the
angle at which the air enters the first five stages of the
H.P. compressor.
The angle varies with the H.P. compressor speed (N2);
this reduces the risk of blade stall and compressor surge.
The five stages of variable incidence stators comprise inlet
guide vanes to stage 3 and stages 3, 4, 5 and 6 stator
vanes.
Mechanical Arrangement
Each vane has pivots at its inner and outer ends, which
allow the vane to rotate about its longitudinal axis.
The outer end of each vane is formed into a shaft which
passes through the compressor case and is attached by a
short lever to a 'unison ring', (one unison ring for each
stage).
Short rods to a crankshaft connect the five unison rings. A
short rod to an actuator that utilises H.P. fuel as a
hydraulic operating medium connects the crankshaft.
Signals from the EEC direct H.P. fuel to extend/retract the
actuator. Actuator movement causes the crankshaft to
rotate, and, through the unison rings, reposition the
variable stator vanes.

Variable Stator Vane System (V.S.V.)

Actuator Removal/Installation
Prior to VSV actuator removal, it is necessary to drain the
fuel lines to the actuator. The fuel lines are drained at the
union locations shown below.
Fuel is drained at this point because it is the lowest point in
the system and also because fuel drained here is less
likely to cause contamination of the engine electrical
harness.



Actuator Rigging
The full procedure is in Chapter 75-32-41 of the engine
maintenance manual but is summarised below.
After refitting the unit, rig pin the actuator piston in the
high speed position (there is only one rig pin position).
Note:
This is achieved by moving the ram to the fully retracted
position against the high speed stop, then withdrawing the
ram as necessary to align the rig pin hole in the fork end
with the hole in the rig pin housing (Detail B).
Rig pin the VSV crankshaft in the high speed position.
Connect the rod adjusting its length to suit (it has a left
and right hand threads turnbuckle effect). Ensure
control rod ends are in safety on completion.
Remove rig pins.
Upon completion carry out Test 3 or 1 leak checks,
followed by Test No 11 - high power assurance test.



Actuator Removal/Installation
The actuators disconnect and mounting features are
shown below. A full description of the removal/installation
can be found in Chapter 75-32-41 of the Maintenance
Manual.
Points to Note:
Rig pin the VSV crankshaft before disconnecting the
actuator see next illustration.
Drain off fuel from the lowest point to avoid
contaminating the engine electrical harness.
Installation is the reverse of the removal procedure.

Handling Bleed Valves Introduction

Handling bleed valves are fitted to the H.P. compressor to
improve engine starting, and prevent engine surge when
the compressor is operating at off-design conditions.
A total of four bleed valves are used, three on stage 7 and
one on stage 10.
The handling bleed valves are two position only - fully
open or fully closed, and are operated pneumatically by
their respective solenoid control valve.
The solenoid control valves are scheduled by the EEC as
a function of N2 and T2.6 (N2 corrected).
When the bleed valves are open, H.P. compressor air
bleeds into the fan duct through ports in the inner barrel of
the 'C' ducts.
The servo air used to operate the bleed valves is H.P.
compressor delivery air known as P3 or Pb.
The bleed valves are arranged radially around the H.P.
compressor case as shown below.
Silencers are used on some bleed valves.
All the bleed valves are spring loaded to the open position
and as a result will always be in the correct position (open)
for starting.


Handling Bleed Valves - Location

The diagram below shows the location of the four bleed
valves and the solenoid control valve.


Handling Bleed Valves - Operating Schedule

The handling bleed valves have three operating regimes:
Steady State.
Transient - Acceleration/Deceleration.
Surge/Reverse
Operation of the bleed valve is scheduled against N2
corrected for changes of H.P. compressor (T2.6) inlet
temperature - known as N2C26.
Steady State
The valves are commanded open whenever N2C26 is below
the steady state closing speed.
Transient
The valves are commanded open at the beginning of
accelerations/decelerations and will close when either the
speed limits are exceeded or timers expire.
After an acceleration phase has ceased, the valve will remain
open until a period of 5 seconds have elapsed, after which it
will then be signalled to close.
During a deceleration phase the valve will remain open until a
period of 62 seconds have elapsed after the engine has
stabilised at the new engine speed.
Surge/Reverse
The valves will be commanded open in the event of a surge.
In reverse thrust laws similar to the transient laws apply.

Handling Bleed Valves - Operation

The bleed valves and the solenoid control valves all
operate in the same manner. The operation of one bleed
valve only is described.
Bleed Valves
The bleed valve is a two-position valve and is either fully
open or fully closed. The bleed valve is spring loaded to
the open position and so all the bleed valves will be in the
correct position - open - for engine start.
When the engine is started the bleed air will try to close
the valve. The valve is kept in the open position by servo
air (P3) supplied from the solenoid control valve, (solenoid
de-energised) as shown below.


Handling Bleed Valves Operation

The EEC will close the bleed valves at the correct time
during acceleration. The bleed valve is closed by the EEC,
which energises the solenoid control valve, as shown
below.
Energising the solenoid control valve vents the P3 servo
air from the opening chamber of the bleed valve, and the
valve will move to the closed position.
During an engine deceleration the reverse operation
occurs and the bleed valve opens.

prevent the valve from operating smoothly and the valve
will seize.
If the valve does not operate when required, the engine
will experience problems at critical points.
Handling Bleed valves failures have two major
consequences:
Hung Start:
If the bleed valve sticks in the closed condition, (Non-
detected FADEC fault) or the solenoid valve sticking in the
energised position (Non-detected FADEC fault) the engine
will experience difficulty in starting hung start or surge
during the start cycle.
This is due to the fact that during low engine speeds, the
bleed valve system is designed to effectively dump into
the C duct a large amount of the air supplied to the HP
Compressor. This is necessary because of the HP
Compressors inability to handle all the mass flow of air
being supplied to it by the LP Compressor during low
speed operation.

Engine Operation Impact
During transient manoeuvres (acceleration/deceleration)
and surge recovery, HP compressor stability is maintained
by opening particular bleed valves as defined by the EEC
logic.
For transient manoeuvres on the ground, the 7C are
opened and during flight both the 7A and 7C are opened.
In both cases the 7C are opened based upon a transient
detect and is closed after a set period of time has elapsed.
There are no valves opened at take-off power or steady
state cruise. For surge recovery, the 7A, 7C and 10 stage
bleed valves are opened to maintain compressor stability.
Possible causes
Engine problems (stall/surge) on transient operation can
be the result of:
Bleed valve(s) not being opened during the transient
(acceleration/deceleration)
Bleed valve closing early.
Bleed valves not being open can be due to the bleed
valve sticking in the closed position (Non-detected
FADEC fault), or the solenoid sticking in the energised
position (Non-detected FADEC fault).

modulation.
The operating piston is spring loaded to the open position
when servo air is not present in the piston chamber.
Servo air is used to close the valve.
The micro switch gives positional feedback of the piston
position hence the valves condition.
The fail safe position is valve open.


10TH Stage Make Up Air System Operation

The operation of the system is as follows:
The EEC constantly monitors:
Corrected N2.
Pressure altitude.
The make up air valve will be commanded to open during
all flight conditions except during cruise.
To Energise the Solenoid Valve
The solenoid pack attracts the cover plate A towards it
thus opening up the chamber that is at the spring side of
the pilot valve.
The servo air pressure and spring pressure at the spring
end of the pilot valve overcomes the servo air pressure
alone on the opposite side of the pilot valve.
This makes the pilot valve move towards the cover plate B.
Cover plate B is pushed away from the orifice allowing
servo air to enter the make up valve.
The servo air enters the make up valve piston chamber in
the opposite side to the spring side. The servo air pressure
overcomes the spring pressure and forces the piston to
move and hence close the valve.
The microswitch contacts are broken and a feedback
signal is fed to the EEC.


To De-Energise the Solenoid Valve

The solenoid pack is de-energised. The cover plate A is
force away from the solenoid pack by spring pressure and
forced against the orifice. This prevents servo air from
entering the spring side of the pilot valve.
Servo air pressure on the opposite side of the pilot valve
now forces this valve against the spring. As the pilot valve
moves cover plate B closes off the orifice. This prevents
servo air pressure from entering the make up valve piston
chamber.
The spring affecting the piston valve forces the piston to
move and open the make up valve orifice.
The microswitch contacts are made and a feedback signal
is fed to the EEC.
Fail Safe Position
The fail safe position has the valve in the open position
hence solenoid de-energised. This is also true if a power
loss is experienced or a loss of servo air pressure.

Purpose
The anti icing control valve allows the flow of HPC stage 7
air to enter the TAI manifold in the intake cowl.
Location
The anti icing valve is located on the right hand side of the
fan case in the 4 oclock position.
Description
The anti icing control valve has the following function:

The control solenoid is de energised.
The ball valve is no longer held by the control solenoid
against the ambient vent. The ball valve moves by spring
pressure against the orifice, which allows upstream air to
enter area A.
This now prevents air passage to area A of the piston.
The air pressure now remains at piston area B only. This
pressure is greater than the spring pressure alone therefor
the piston moves against the spring pressure.
The resultant movement opens the butterfly valve and
allows HPC stage 7 air to flow towards the TAI manifold.

Ice Protection System Maintenance

A failure of an anti icing valve to either open or close when
commanded to do so by the flight deck selector switches,
allows the engineer to override the valve in the open or
closed position.
The manifold off-take from the engine is mounted on the
core engine and works its way towards the right hand side
of the fan casing.
At the fan casing an anti ice valve is located.
There is a connection between the fan casing manifolds
and the air intake manifolds.
The air intake manifolds allows the HPC stage 7 air to flow
into a distribution manifold.
Excess air then under its own pressure is ejected to
atmosphere from an outlet grid found on the right hand
side of the intake cowl.

Shaft Speed Indicating System

Purpose
The speed indicating system provides signals of: Hence if the phonic wheel has 60 teeth then 60 pulses

N1 shaft speed.
N2 System
N2 shaft speed.
The N2 indication is supplied by a dual output signal from
The indications are used for: channel B of the dedicated generator.

A dedicated signal is used for trim balancing purposes.

The N1 speed sensors are located in the front bearing the speed pulse probes. This probe supplies a dedicated
chamber mounted on the no.2 bearing support. signal for monitoring of LP system unbalance.
The N2 speed indication is the output signals from the The probe is also different from the speed probes. It
dedicated generator. cannot be utilised to give N1 speed indication.
Description The pulse probe monitors a datum tooth of the phonic
wheel. This tooth is in line with the no.1 fan blade.
The speed indicating description is as follows:
N1 System
Three pulse probes supply the N1 indication. The pulse
probes operate by monitoring the passage of a phonic
wheel.
The phonic wheel passage across the pulse probe
generates an output signal relative to a percentage of a
revolution.


N1Speed Indicating System Operation

The probes comprise of two pole pieces, a permanent
magnet, and a coil wound on to one of the pole pieces.
The pole pieces span two teeth of the phonic wheel. The
phonic wheel is an integral part of the fan stub-shaft and
has 60 teeth.
As the shaft rotates and the teeth of the phonic wheel pass
the pole pieces and a voltage pulse is produced in the
winding. The number of pulses produced is directly
proportional to the speed of the shaft.
This signal is passed to the EEC and is used to display N1
speed on the flight deck and also for the engine control
circuits as required.
Trim Balance Probe
The signal from this probe is only used during trim balance
operations and provides the phase relationship between
any out of balance forces present and a datum position.
The trim balance probe senses the passage of one
specially modified tooth on the phonic wheel and produces
one pulse per revolution.

Air upstream of the butterfly valve is filtered and routed
through an orifice in the solenoid valve.
Air upstream of the orifice is also admitted to the smaller
piston of the double acting actuator.
When the solenoid is energised the ball valve opens to
admit air to the larger piston whilst simultaneously closing
the vent port.
The air acting on the larger piston overcomes the
combined force of upstream air pressure acting on the
smaller piston and the actuator spring.
Movement of the actuator is translated through the linkage
to rotate the butterfly valve towards the open position.


Pneumatic Starter Motor

Purpose
The purpose of the pneumatic starter motor is to provide
an initial rotational input to the high speed external
gearbox in order to assist the engine to achieve a stable
minimum power condition (low idle).
Location
The starter motor is located on the front face of the high
speed external gearbox.
Description
The starter motor consists of the following:
Oil filler/level plug.
Drain plug with a built in magnetic chip detector.
QAD devices to allow for ease of maintenance.
The starter motor gears and bearings are lubricated by an
integral lubrication system.
A quick attach/disconnect adapter (QAD) attaches the
starter motor to the external gearbox. A quick detach Vee
clamp connects the starter motor to the adapter.
Note:
There are two standards of starter motor available for the
V2500 Powerplant. The current being the synchronous
clutch engagement unit.
The synchronous clutch allows for smoother crash
engagements thus reducing the wear and damage caused
by such operations.


Starter Motor
Operation
The starter is a pneumatically driven turbine unit that When the starter output drive shaft rotational speed
accelerates the HP rotor to the required speed for engine increases above a predetermined rpm, Centrifugal force
starting. overcomes the tension of the clutch leaf springs, allowing
the pawls to be pulled clear of the gear hub ratchet teeth
The starter comprises of the following:
to disengage the output drive shaft from the turbine.
A single stage turbine.
A reduction gear train.
A clutch and an output drive shaft.
These are all housed within a case incorporating an air
inlet and exhaust.
Compressed air enters the starter, impinges on the turbine
blades to rotate the turbine, and leaves through the air
exhaust.
The reduction gear train converts the high speed, low
torque rotation of the turbine to low speed, high torque
rotation of the gear train hub.
The ratchet teeth of the gear hub engage the pawls of the
output drive shaft to transmit drive to the external gearbox,
which in turn accelerates the engine HP compressor rotor
assembly.
When the air supply to the starter is cut off, the pawls
overrun the gear train hub ratchet teeth allowing the
turbine to coast to a stop.
The engine HP turbine compressor assembly, the external
gearbox and starter output drive shaft continue to rotate.

the left hand side fan cowl door.
Description
The HCU is a self contained LRU designed to control the
flow of high pressure hydraulic fluid. The EEC and EIU has
control over the HCU control solenoids.
When the EEC detects a demand for thrust reverse
operation both EEC and EIU will signal the HCU control
solenoids.
The HCU has the following features;
A hydraulic isolation valve (HIV) which controls the flow
of high-pressure hydraulic fluid into the thrust reverser
system. A control solenoid valve controls the HIV
function.
A directional control valve (DCV) which controls the
direction of flow of the high-pressure hydraulic fluid to

mechanism which gives;
A worm wheel that rotates the flex shafts.

A means of preventing the translating sleeves from

uncommanded movement.
Location
The lower locking actuators are located in the thrust
reverser C duct units at the lower positions.
Description
The actuators in general control the movement of the
translating sleeves in a linear motion.
The lower actuators on either thrust reverser C duct have
a locking mechanism incorporated in the design. The
locking mechanism adds to the safety of the system.
The lower locking actuators incorporate the following
features;
Hydraulically operated linear motion actuators.
A locking mechanism called a tine lock. This can only
be unlocked when hydraulic pressure is present in the
system.

When the actuator is at stow the target is in line with
the proximity sensor.
When the actuator is at deploy the target is away from
the proximity sensor.
The EEC detects these conditions.
High pressure fluid being present in both sides of the
system forces the actuator to move towards the deploy
direction. This bias of movement exists because the
surface area of the deploy side of the pressure plate is
greater that the surface area of the stow side.


Upper Non Locking Actuators

Description
The hydraulic actuators in general control the movement of
the translating sleeves.
The upper non locking actuators incorporate a linear
variable displacement transducer (LVDT) that feeds back
translating sleeve status of translation and deployment.
The actuators operate in the same manner as the locking
actuators.
For deployment the high pressure hydraulic fluid is
present on both sides of the system.
For stowing the high pressure hydraulic fluid is present
on the stow side of the system only.
The LVDT monitors the movement of the translating
sleeves and feeds back the signals to the EEC. This is
done to tell the EEC that the translating sleeves are in
transit and when 78% of travel towards the deploy has
been achieved.

HCU.
To close the shut off valve the selection of thrust reverse
levers must be in the forward thrust position.


Thrust Reverser Flex (Synchronisation) Shaft

Purpose
The flex shaft purpose is to maintain synchronous
movement of the actuators. This prevents any one
actuator from moving faster than the others.
Location
The flex shaft is located within the deploy tube system.
Description
The flex shaft system comprises of the following;
T piece housing assembly. This allows the distribution of
high pressure hydraulic fluid to both sides of the thrust
reverser system.
Two flexible tubes. This allows the crossover shaft to link
the reverser halves together while allowing the C ducts to
be opened.
Two rigid tubes. These are found between the upper and
lower actuators. They carry hydraulic fluid to the deploy
side of the system.
Three flexible shafts. These link all the actuators together.
Note:
The two deploy tubes have a telescopic coupling at one
end to permit simple removal and installation without
disturbing the actuators.


Thrust Reverser Deflector Boxes (Cascades)

Purpose
The cascades are designed to direct the fan air to provide
the reverse thrust for the engine.
Location
The cascades are located between the inner and outer
translating sleeve sleeves. They are mounted on the fixed
section of the C ducts.
Description
There are 16 cascades fitted to the thrust reverser system.
The cascades are designed to direct the fan air forwards
thus providing for the function of the thrust reverse system.
They are designed to direct the fan air away from the
ground thus reducing the risk of debris from being blown
up and ingested into the engine.
They are designed to direct the fan air away from the
airframe thus not inducing any unnecessary stress upon
the airframe itself.

Flight phase 1 (Electrical Power on before first engine start)
and Flight Phase 10 (When the second engine has been shut
down after the flight). It is used to highlight a problem or
degradation in the built in redundancy facility of the FADEC
System. This feature prevents un-wanted distractions of
system degradation being shown to the pilot during the flight.
A fault of this nature is dispatchable and the fault can be left
un-rectified for up to ten days.

The purpose of the CFDS is to give the maintenance
engineers a central maintenance aid to intervene at system or
sub-system level from a Multipurpose Centralised Display Unit
(MCDU) located on the flight deck.
The MCDU allows the engineer to;
Interrogate a variety of systems using Built in Test

Failure Classifications
There are three (3) levels of Failure Classifications and these
are signified by the method of notification of their existence to
the Flight Crew or to the Maintenance Engineer during ground
operation and testing.
Class 1
Failures are indicated, by means of the upper ECAM display
or local warnings. Procedures to be followed by the operator
to help to ameliorate the problem may also be displayed.
Class 2
The operator is informed of a Class 2 failure on the ECAM
STATUS page, which only shows the system, affected by the
Class 2 failure. A white STS symbol appears on the upper
ECAM.
Class 3
The operator is not informed of Class 3 failures. Class 3
failures are only accessible through the Centralised Fault
Display System (CFDS) via the MCDU in menu mode
