Electronic Flight Instrument System

๐Ÿ›ฉ️An electronic flight instrument system (EFIS) is an electronic display technology on the flight deck display system.


๐Ÿ›ฉ️It usually consists of Engine Indicating and Crew Alerting System (EICAS), Primary Flight Display (PFD) and Multi-Function Display (MFD) display.

๐Ÿ›ฉ️They commonly use a liquid crystal display (LCD) even though they earlier used cathode ray tube (CRT) displays.

๐Ÿ›ฉ️Installation of the EFIS varies greatly this is where a wide-body aircraft is equipped with six or more display units on which flight and navigation data are displayed while a light aircraft is likely to have one unit.

✈️The installation of EFIS follows the sequence
✈️ Displays
✈️Controls
✈️ Data processors

๐Ÿ›ฉ️Basic EFIS contains all the facilities in one unit....
✈️Display Units-
๐Ÿ›ซPrimary flight display (PFD)
๐Ÿ›ซNavigation display (ND)
๐Ÿ›ซMulti-function display (MFD)

๐Ÿ›ซElectronic centralized aircraft monitoring (ECAM)/Engine indications and crew alerting system (EICAS)....

✈️Control Panels-
๐Ÿ›ซThere is the provision of controls to the pilots where they select the display mode and range (for instance, compass rose or maps) and key in data (like a certain heading)....

✈️Data Processor-
๐Ÿ›ซThe symbol generator also known as display processing computer or display electronics unit, produces the visual display in the EFIS. It receives data inputs from the pilot and the EFIS format selections made, and signals from sensors...

๐Ÿ›ฉ️A combustor is a component or area of a gas turbine, ramjet, or scramjet engine where combustion takes place. It is also known as a burner, combustion chamber or flame holder. In a gas turbine engine, combustion chamber is fed high pressure air by the compression system. ๐Ÿ›ฉ️The combustor then heats this air at constant pressure. After heating, air passes from the combustor through the nozzle guide vanes to the turbine. In the case of a ramjet or scramjet engines, the air is directly fed to the nozzle. ๐€๐ง๐ง๐ฎ๐ฅ๐š๐ซ ๐“๐ฒ๐ฉ๐ž ✈️The most commonly used type of combustor is the fully annular combustor. Annular combustors do away with the separate combustion zones and simply have a continuous liner and casing in a ring. There are many advantages to annular combustors, including more uniform combustion, shorter size, lighter, and less surface area. Annular combustors tend to have very uniform exit temperatures. They also have the lowest pressure drop of the three...

๐Ÿ›ซA monocoque structure uses its outer shell to support stresses and loads applied to it, whereas a semi-monocoque structure has an internal "skeleton" of supports and braces to keep its shape rigid and strong. ๐Ÿ›ซThe vast majority of pressurized aircraft are semimonocoque to help distribute stresses equally along the fuselage during flight. ๐Ÿ›ซHowever, some helicopters use monocoque structure to maximize internal space in the flight compartment. ๐Ÿ›ซMonocoque fuselage has its skin holding the skeleton structure together while the semi-monocoque has both the skin and the skeleton holding together. ๐Ÿ›ซSemi-monocoque also has "stringers" running horizontally down the plane to help hold the frame together. ๐Ÿ›ซThe monocoque fuselage also cannot be used for airframes after a certain size (small aircraft with single engine), but the semi-monocoque has been used from single piston engines to commercial airliners. ๐Ÿ›ซA monocoque design would also have ...

Wet Sump Oil System ✳️The engine oil system performs several important functions: ๐Ÿ›ฉ️Lubrication of the engine’s moving parts . ๐Ÿ›ฉ️Cooling of the engine by reducing friction . ๐Ÿ›ฉ️Removing heat from the cylinders . ๐Ÿ›ฉ️Carrying away contaminants . ๐Ÿ›ฉ️Providing a seal between the cylinder walls and pistons. ➡️Subscribe us for more aircraft knowledge and aircraft fact⬅️ ➡️Do Share with your Friends⬅️
