Answer
  • an aneroid capsule.
  • a differential capsule.
  • a Bourdon tube.
  • a bellows sensor.

Question 4

Question

  • pressure sensors.
  • smoke detectors.
  • turbine temperature probes.

Question 6

Question
The engine instrument utilising an aneroid pressure diaphragm is the:
Answer
  • oil pressure gauge.
  • manifold pressure gauge.
  • fuel pressure gauge.
  • oil temperature gauge.

Question 7

Question
If a manifold pressure gauge consistently registers atmospheric pressure, the cause is probably:
Answer
  • ice in induction system.
  • too high float level.
  • fuel of too low volatility.
  • leak in pressure gauge line.

Question 8

Question
A manifold pressure gauge of a piston engine measures
Answer
  • fuel pressure leaving the carburettor.
  • vacuum in the carburettor.
  • absolute pressure in intake system near the inlet valve.
  • absolute air pressure entering the carburettor.

Question 9

Question
An aneroid capsule: 1) measures differential pressure 2) measures absolute pressure 3) is used for low pressure measurement 4) is used for very high pressure measurement The combination regrouping all the correct statements is:
Answer
  • 1, 3
  • 2, 3
  • 2, 4
  • 1, 4

Question 10

Question
On Ale with a fuel pressure gauge, where is the pressure normally measured? (Aircraft with fuel injection)
Answer
  • Tank outlet.
  • Selector valve outlet.
  • At the injection nozzles.
  • Inlet of the fuel injection metering unit.

Question 11

Question
Absolute pressure is:
Answer
  • the difference between two pressures.
  • the amount the pressure has been raised with reference to an initial level.
  • measured from zero pressure (vacuum).
  • pressure in a confined area.

Question 12

Question
A thermocouple can be made of:
Answer
  • a single wire coil.
  • two metal conductors of the same nature fixed together at two points.
  • a three wire coil.
  • two metal conductors of different nature fixed together at two points.

Question 13

Question
The temperature measured by the CHT (Cylinder Head Temperature) probe is the:
Answer
  • temperature of the exhaust gases.
  • average temperature within the whole set of cylinders.
  • temperature within the hottest cylinder, depending on its position in the engine block.
  • temperature of the carburettor to be monitored when the outside air temperature is between -5°C and 10°C.

Question 14

Question
To permit turbine exit temperatures to be measured, gas turbines are equipped with thermometers which work on the following principle:
Answer
  • bi-metallic strip.
  • thermocouple.
  • liquid expansion.
  • gas pressure.

Question 15

Question
A millivoltmeter measuring the electromotive force between the "hot junction" and the "cold junction" of a thermocouple can be directly graduated in temperature values provided that the temperature of the:
Answer
  • hot junction is maintained constant.
  • cold junction is maintained constant.
  • cold junction is maintained at 15°C.
  • hot junction is maintained at 15°C.

Question 16

Question
The main advantage of a ratiometer-type temperature indicator is that it:
Answer
  • carries out a measurement independent of the supply. voltage.
  • can operate without an electrical power supply.
  • is very accurate.
  • is very simple.

Question 17

Question
The measurement of the turbine temperature or of the EGT is carried out at the:
Answer
  • intake of the high pressure chamber.
  • outlet of the combustion chamber.
  • inlet of the combustion chamber.
  • outlet of the high pressure stage of the turbine.
