ATTERIES

BATTERY MAINT- ATA 24&31

LEAD ACID - PINK COLOUR CODE

ALKALINE - BLUE COLOUR CODE

BATTERIES FITTED M.E.C OR REAR CARGO

LEAD ACID & LITHIUM BATTERIES REQUIRE VENTING OVERBOARD (ACID TRAP FOR LEAD)

BATTERY CONNECTOR WIRE LOCKED WITH FRANGIBLE WIRE.

BATTERY CHARGING CIRCUIT HAS REVERSE CURRENT C.B TO DISCONNECT FROM MAIN BUS

IN EMERGENCY BATTERIES SUPPLY HOT BATTERY BUS ONLY FOR ESSENTIAL LOADS

BATTERIES IN SERIES GIVE SUM OF VOLTAGE

SWITCHING RELAY CONNECT MULTIPLE BATTERIES IN SERIES FOR ENG STARTING

THERMAL SWITCH FOR OVERCHARGING (THERMAL RUNAWAY)

LEAD ACID BATTERIES CHARGED BY CONSTANT VOLTAGE

NI-CAD & LITHIUM BATTERIES CHARGED FULLY BY CONSTANT CURRENT & HELD THERE BY CONSTANT VOLTAGE.

NI-CAD & LITHIUM ARE ALKALINE ELECTROLYTE - APPLY ACID TO SPILLAGES

ALKALINE BATTERIES DECREASED INTERNAL RESISTANCE, LESS TEMP SENSITIVE, CHARGES QUICKER

CONSTANT CURRENT CHARGING IS PULSED CURRENT

LITHIUM BATTERY- 32 V 8 CELLS = 4 V PER CELL

NI-CAD BATTERY- 24 V 20 CELLS = 1.2 V PER CELL

LITHIUM BATTERY IS 30% LESS WEIGHT + SMALLER BUT DOSENT LIKE TO BE CHARGED IN LOW TEMP

BATTERY TRAY PRIMARY USE TO HOLD BATT IN EMERGENCY

LEAD ACID - 2.2 V PER CELL

BATTERIES MUST SUPPLY 30 MINS OF POWER AND HAVE TEMP SENSOR BY LEGISLATION

MUST BE MORE THAN 80% EFFICENT

DC POWER GENERAGTION

FIELD VOLTAGE INCREASES THEN OUTPUT VOLTAGE INCREASES

DC GEN WIRED IN SERIES WITH OUTPUT LOAD

DC GEN NEED TO MAINTAIN CONSTANT VOLTAGE WITH VARYING LOADS

VOLTAGE OUTPUT ADJUSTED BY VARYING FIELD CURRENT

CARBON PILE VOLTAGE SENSITIVE DEVICE, WHEN VOLTAGE INCREASE CARBON DISCS SEPARATE WHICH INCREASES RESISTANCE
AND VICE VERSA

VIBRATING TYPE- VOLTAGE SENSITIVE COIL (PARALLEL WITH GEN OUTPUT) BECOMES MORE MAGNETIC WHEN VOLTAGE INCREASES
WHICH OPENS THE CONTACT SO THE FIELD CURRENT PASSES THROUGH A DIFFERENT CIRCUIT WITH A RESISTOR IN IT

CARBON PILE/VIBRATING TYPE- PLACED IN SERIES WITH EXITOR FIELD TO REDUCE GEN OUTPUT VOLTAGE

CURRENT LIMITER SIMILAR TO VIBRATING CONTACT BUT COIL IS CURRENT SENSITIVE (IN SERIES WITH GEN OUTPUT)

TO STOP GENERATOR BEING BACK DRIVEN BY A BATTERY A REVERSE CURRENT CUT-OUT RELAY (R.C.C.R) IS USED WHICH
INCORPORATES BOTH A CURRENT COIL AND VOLTAGE COIL, WHEN FLOW IS REVERSED THE CURRENT COILS MAGNETISM OPPOSES
VOLTAGE COIL, IF GEN NOT OUTPUTTING ENOUGH THEN THERES NO MAGNETIC FIELD , THEREFORE OUPUT CONTACT OPENS.

TRIPLE UNIT REGULATOR INCLUDES VOLTAGE REGULATOR, CURRENT REGULATOR & R.C.C.R

IN SOLID STATE REGULATORS ZENER DIODE IS USED

PARALLELING COIL CONNECTS MULTIPLE GENS FIELD EXCITERS TO ALTER CURRENT TO BALANCE VOLTAGE OUTPUT , ONCE ALL
GEN OUTPUT VOLTAGE IS SIMILAR CONTACTS CLOSE

DIFFERENTIAL PROCTECTION- CONNECTS GENERATOR TO BUS BAR ONCE OUTPUT VOLTAGE IS 0.5 V ABOVE BUS BAR VOLTAGE,
THE C.B OPENS ON ENGINE SHUT DOWN ( PROTECTS AGAINST GEN BEING BACK DRIVEN)

GEN STARTED OFF-LOAD SO THAT THE FIELD VOLTAGE GETS A CHANCE TO BUILD UP

GALLEY SHED SWITCH ON OVERHEAD PANEL, ISOLATES GALLEY FROM BUS BAR WHEN THERES LOW POWER.

RIGHT HAND RULE APPLIES TO GENERATORS

ARMATURE IN SERIES WITH LOAD

FIELD IN PARALLEL WITH LOAD

AC POWER GENERATION

FREQUANCY =N X P / 60 N=RPM P=PAIR OF POLES

REACTIVE (CONDUCTANCE/INDUCTANCE)- BACK EMF ON DOWN GOING WAVE -90 (LAG) CAPACITIVE -90 (LEAD)

REAL LOAD (RESISTIVE)-TORQUE

TRUE POWER/APPARENT POWER(KVA) = POWER FACTOR

SELF EXCITED GEN- AS SOON AS MAGNETS ROATED IN SEPARATE PERMANENT MAGNET GEN (PMG), THE EXCITER CIRCUIT IS
ENERGISED BY RECTIFIED DC OF THE PMG.

THERMISTOR IN FIELD WINDING MAINTAINS CONSTANT RESISTANCE

BRUSHLESS GEN HAVE ROTATING FIELD WINDINGS

CSD CAN NOT BE RESET IN FLIGHT, RESEST ON GROUND WITH ENGINE STATIONARY VIA MANUAL RESET HANDLE

MOUNTED ON GEARBOX VIA QAD

VARIABLE PITCH PUMP TYPE-CSD SPEED REGULATED BY SPEED GOVERNOR ADJUSTING SWASH PLATE(MOTOR WOBBLER) IN
ENGINE DRIVEN PUMP WHICH DRIVES THE MOTOR CONNECTED TO THE OUTPUT SHAFT

DIFFERENTIAL TYPE (GEAR)-CSD SPEED REGULATED BY DIFFERENTIAL GEARS WHICH SPEED UP OR SLOW DOWN CONTROLLED BY
MOTOR/PUMP ASSY ROTATING ONE WAY OR THE OTHER

CSD CLUTCH SOLENOID OPERATED TO ENGAGE ROTATING THREADED SHAFT IN STATIONARY THREADED PAWL TO WITHDRAW DOG
TOOTHED CLUTCH FROM ROTATING ENG INPUT SHAFT

INVERTER- D.C TO A.C (DC MOTOR & AC GENERATOR)

SOLID STATE INVERTER - (SINUSOIDAL OSCILLATOR TO GIVE AC WAVE THEN TRANSFORMER USED TO GIVE DESIRED VOLTAGE)

VARIABLE SPEED CONSTANT FREQUENCY GEN (VSCF)- VARIABLE A.C IS RECTIFIED TO D.C AND THEN INVERTED TO CONSTANT
FREQUANCY A.C WAVEFORM.

VSCF SIGNAL OUTPUT IS FROM AN A.C FILTER

APU & GROUND POWER IS NEVER PARALLELED WITH GENS

ON PARALLEL SYSTEM THE BTB IS OPERATED BY GEN CONTROL UNIT (GCU) VIA BUS POWER CONTROL UNIT (BPCU)

DIFFERENTIAL PROTECTION - TO TRIP IF DIFFERENCE IN CURRENT BETWEEN LINE TO LINE, LINE TO EARTH AND LINE TO LINE TO
LINE.

OVER VOLTAGE PROTECTION CIRCUIT WILL TRIP QUICKER HIGHER THE VOLTAGE

IN THE CASE OF REAL LOAD SHARING CONTROL SIGNAL WILL CONTROL THE CSDU

IN THE CASE OF REACTIVE LOADS THE CONTROL SIGNAL WILL CONTROL FIELD EXCITATION

LIGHTS

CANDELA

INCANDESCENCE - EMISSION OF VISBLE RADIATION FROM A HOT BOADY

HALGEN BULB - LOST ATOM RECOMBINE ON FILAMENT - DUE TO CHEMICAL REACTION FROM THE INTERNAL GAS(DO NOT TOUCH
WITH FINGERS-HOT SPOTS FROM GREASE)

FLUORESCENT -DUE TO THIER TOXIC CONTET THEY ME MUST BE DISPOSED OF IAW STRICT REGULATIONS
LUMINESCENT(GLOW IN THE DARK)-INTERNALLY COATED WITH PHOSPHOR/FILLED WITH RADIOACTIVE TITRUM GAS(SHOULD
BREAKAGE OCCUR EVACUATE WIT ALL DOORS OPEN TO ALLOW FULL VENTILATION)
