Whilst in level cruising flight an aeroplane with a pressurised cabin experiences a malfunction of the pressure controller If the cabin rate of climb ?

Support > Airworthiness

exemple 128
The differential pressure will rise to its maximum value, thus causing safety relief valves to open, a descent must be initiated to prevent oxygen masks dropping when cabin altitude reaches4ft, aircraft has to climb to a higher flight level in order to reduce cabin altitude to its initial value, crew has to intermittently cut off incoming air flow in order to maintain a zero cabin altitude. The differential pressure will rise to its maximum value, thus causing safety relief valves to open. read question carefully. it states a cabin rate of climb of minus 200ft/min. the cabin descending.

At Reference In a pressurized aircraft whose cabin altitude is 8000 ft a crack in a cabin window makes it necessary to reduce the differential pressure to 5 psi The flight level to be maintained in ?

exemple 129
At reference in a pressurized aircraft whose cabin altitude 8000 ft a crack in a cabin window makes it necessary to reduce differential pressure to 5 psi the flight level to be maintained in order to keep same cabin altidue 862 Fl 23 , fl8 , fl 28 , fl 34. From table it can be seen that pressure at 8000 ft 10.92 psi now we've been told because of crack in cabin window we can maintain a pressure differential of 5 psi. therefore air outside can only be 5 psi less than that inside cabin (ie 10.92 5 = 5.92). again from table altitude where we get closest to 5.92 approximately 23000 ft (fl230).

The pressurisation system of an aeroplane ?

exemple 130
The pressurisation system of an aeroplane Has capability to maintain a cabin pressure higher than ambient pressure, only pressurises flight deck area, will maintain a zero cabin differential pressure at all altitudes, will maintain a sea level cabin altitude at all altitudes.

  • exemple 131
    In a turbo compressor air conditioning system bootstrap system supply of air behind primary heat exchanger Compressed, passed through a heat exchanger, then across an expansion turbine, passed across an expansion turbine, compressed then passed through a heat exchanger, passed across an expansion turbine, then directly to heat exchanger, compressed, then passed across an expansion turbine finally across a heat exchanger. The term bootstrap refers to a self sustaining process that proceeds without external help.

  • exemple 132
    The purpose of cabin air flow control valves in a pressurization system to Maintain a constant sufficient mass air flow to ventilate cabin minimise cabin pressure surges, regulate cabin pressure to selected altitude, discharge cabin air to atmosphere if cabin pressure rises above selected altitude, regulate cabin pressure at maximum cabin pressure differential. Cabin pressurization controlled during all phases of airplane operation the cabin pressure control system. the system uses bleed air supplied to distributed the air conditioning system. pressurization ventilation are controlled modulating outflow valve the overboard exhaust valve. pressurization outflow cabin air outflow controlled the outflow valve the overboard exhaust valve. a small amount also exhausted through toilet galley vents, miscellaneous fixed vents, by seal leakage. outflow valve the outflow valve the overboard exhaust exit the majority of air circulated through passenger cabin. passenger cabin air drawn through foot level grills, down around aft cargo compartment, where it provides heating, is discharged overboard through outflow valve. note the answer discharge cabin air to atmosphere if cabin pressure rises above selected altitude , we are talking about pressure relief valves who provide safety pressure relief limiting differential pressure to a maximum of 9.1 psi. a negative relief valve prevents external atmospheric pressure from exceeding internal cabin pressure.

  • exemple 133
    If pressure in cabin tends to become lower than outside ambient air pressure Negative pressure relief valve will open, negative pressure relief valve will close, air cycle machine will stop, outflow valve open completely. All pressurised aircraft have negative pressure relief valves that will open enable cabin pressure to increase at same rate as ambient pressure should cabin/ambient differential try to go negative. aircraft are structurally designed a positive differential (cabin pressure higher than ambient). under normal operation pressure controller can cope but in emergencies negative pressure relief valves will function.
