Project #5
Aircraft Reciprocating Engine Operation
Purpose:
Describe the controls and instrumentation associated with reciprocating engines. Interpret
engine instrument information.
Reference: Aircraft specific POH
Activities:
Part 1: Reciprocating Engine Controls
1)
Identify the engine controls in figure 1. (Cirrus SR20)
Power lever Mixture control
Start/ignition switch
2)
Identify the engine controls in figure 2. (Piper Seminole)
Throttle Propellor control
Mixture control lever
3)
The power lever in the Cirrus SR20 is linked to the butterfly valve/fuel metering unit and the propeller pitch control
4)
The power lever in the Cirrus SR20 is designed to maintain 2500 RPM during cruise with
a maximum RPM of 2700
5)
Pushing the propeller levers full forward in the Seminole will put the engine at High (HIGH or LOW) RPM.

Task 8 - Induction Systems
In order for combustion to take place an induction system is required to feed fuel and air into the
cylinder of an engine. To improve efficiency and performance spark ignition (SI) engines are now
adopting compression ignition (CI) engine technology by injecting fuel directly into the cylinder
just before the point of ignition however these engines still require an air induction system.
Carburettors: before fuel injection technology had been fully developed carburettors (carbs)
were used to create a fuel/air ratio at different engine speeds and loads. A cold start facility was
also fitted albeit manually operated.
The demand for more performance has meant the fixed choke carb' was no longer suitable. More
complex carbs' were developed (twin choke) as well as variable choke (constant depression)
carbs which used engine vacuum (during throttle opening) to vary the size of choke according to
operating requirements.

A pick and Place machine is being used to transfer a box.
The arm is extended (out) by energizing a solenoid valve; when the valve is de-energizes, the arm retracts (in). In the same way, a second valve closes the grip (when energized) or opens
the grip (when de-energized).
Here's a diagram of this "machine":

i-Use the first law of thermodynamics to determine an algebraic equation for the combustorexit temperature (T 04 ) in terms of equivalence ratio (phi) if the fuel in Problem 2 is used. Hint:find the equation for f in terms of T04 and T03 in the canvas handout, our class notes, or in thetextbook in Chpt 5. Then solve that equation for T04 .Assume that the compressor exit temperature T 03 is 650 K. The heating value (Q R ) of thenew fuel in problem 2 is 39,000 kJ/kg fuel. The effective heat capacity cp of the mixture is constant and is 1.2 kJ/(kg-K). Insert these values into your equation for (T 04 ) in terms ofequivalence ratio (phi)

The level of liquid in a reboiler on a distillation column is controlled by using feedback control to throttle a
valve on the liquid product (see below P&ID). However, the pressure of vapour above the liquid in the reboiler
also affects the flow rate of liquid product, as an increase in pressure above the liquid will push the liquid
through the product line faster.
a) Draw a cascade arrangement where the vapour pressure is measured as the secondary variable.
b) Draw a cascade arrangement where the actual flowrate in the liquid product stream is measured as the
secondary variable.
