| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| The oil dampened also known as hydraulic main bearing utilized in some turbine engines is used to | provide an oil film between the outer race and the bearing housing in order to reduce vibration tendencies in the rotor system, and to allow for slight misalignment. |
| Main bearing oil seals used in turbine engines are usually what type? | Labyrinth and/or carbon rubbing. |
| What is the source of most of the heat that is absorbed by the lubricating oil in a reciprocating engine? | Pistons and cylinder walls |
| If an oil filter element becomes completely clogged the | The oil pump will supply unfiltered oil |
| An oil tank having a capacity of 5 gallons, must have an expansion space of | 2 quarts ( no less than 10% of tank capacity) |
| In order to maintain a constant oil pressure as the clearances between the moving parts of an engine increase through normal wear, the supply pump output | remains relatively constant at a given rpm with less oil being returned to the pump inlet by the relief valve. |
| On a gear type oil pump consisting of a drive gear and an idler gear | one gear turns clockwise, ape the other turns counter clockwise. |
| A Bourdon tube type oil pressure gauges measures the difference in oil pressure between a location | after the oil pump and the atmosphere. |
| In what location (flow sequence) on a reciprocating engine is the main oil filter located? | Just after exiting the oil pressure pump. |
| In order to relieve excess pump pressure in an engine's internal oil system, most engines are equipped with a | relief valve. |
| A floating control thermostat is used on some reciprocating aircraft engines. How does this device help to regulate oil temperature? | It controls air flow through the oil cooler |
| If the oil in the oil cooler core and annular jacket becomes congealed, what unit prevents damage to the cooler? | Surge protection valve |
| Cylinder walls are usually lubricated by | Splashed or sprayed oil |
| When does the oil cooler bypass valve open | When the oil temp falls below a specified amount |
| Which of the following prevents oil from entering the main accessory case of a turbine engine when the engine is not running? | Check valve |
| Oil picks up the most heat from which of the following turbine engine components? | Exhaust turbine blade |
| What is the purpose of the relief valve installed in the venting system of a turbine engine oil tank? | Prevent oil pump cavitations by maintaining positive pressure on its inlet. |
| The type of oil pump most commonly used on turbine powered engines are classified as | Positive displacement |
| Which of the following is a function of the fuel oil heat exchanger on a turbojet engine? | Increases fuel temperature |
| What is the purpose of a last chance oil filter? | To prevent damage to the oil pump gears |
| What is the primary purpose of the oil breather pressurization system that is used on turbine engines? | Provides a proper oil spray pattern from the main bearing oil jets. |
| Which type of valve prevents oil from entering the main accessory case when the engine is not running? | Check |
| 3 types of oil pumps used with turbine engines | Vane, gear and gerotor |
