APU PRESENTATION
GENERAL The APU, installed in the fuselage tail cone in a fire proof compartment, is an independent source of pneumatic and electrical power. It can be used in flight and on ground. The compressed air is used to supply the : - Environmental Control System (ECS). - Main Engine Start (MES). - Anti icing. The APU is a Model APS 3200 manufactured and designed by Auxiliary Power International Corps (APIC). ENGINE The APU is a single spool gas turbine engine which drives a load compressor and an accessory gearbox. The engine is composed of: - a single stage centrifugal compressor. - a reverse flow combustion chamber. - a two stage axial flow turbine. The combustion chamber is equipped with 9 fuel nozzles and two ignitor plugs. OIL
TMUAPAB01-T01 LEVEL 1

FUEL The APU is supplied with fuel from either the fuel feed system pump or the fuel tank pumps, according to the pressure sensed in the APU fuel feed line. The Fuel Control Unit (FCU) is the main component of the fuel system. The Electronic Control Box (ECB) computes the fuel/air ratio, corresponding to the APU load, and meters the fuel flow accordingly. Fuel pressure is also used as muscle pressure to operate the load compressor Inlet Guide Vane (IGV) actuator and the Bleed Control Valve (BCV). AIR The main role of the air system is to supply bleed air to the pneumatic system while avoiding compressor surge. The air system includes a Bleed Control Valve, Inlet Guide Vanes to control the airflow into the load compressor in order to avoid overtemperature of the power section. Control and operation of these components are assumed by the Electronic Control Box. IGNITION AND STARTING The APU start sequence is initiated from the cockpit and is controlled by the Electronic Control Box. During starting, the electrical starter motor drives the APU rotating assembly through a clutch and the gear train in the gearbox, it disengages at 55% speed. Initial combustion is ensured by the ignition Unit and the ignitors.

The Oil system is monitored by the Electronic Control Box which receives temperature, pressure and quantity signals The self contained oil system lubricates, cleans and cools the APU bearings and accessory gearbox with the same oil types as approved for the main engines. The oil is also used to cool and lubricate the gearbox mounted AC generator.

APU FUEL FEED SYSTEM DESCRIPTION


FUEL PUMP The APU fuel pump is a centrifugal pump driven by a single phase AC motor. This pump is controlled to run if the APU MASTER SW pushbutton is set to ON and the fuel crossfeed line pressure is not sufficient. The fuel crossfeed line pressure sensor controls the operation of the APU fuel pump. The APU fuel pump runs as soon as the pump inlet pressure is lower than 21.8 PSI. It stops when the pressure is above 23.2 PSI . FUEL LP ISOLATION VALVE The APU Fuel LP isolation valve is driven by two DC motors. This valve is open as long as the MASTER SW pushbutton is set to ON. When closed, it prevents pressurization of the APU fuel feed line and flow of fuel into a specific fire zone. The APU Fuel LP isolation valve is automatically closed when: - MASTER SW P/B is released out, - ECB protective shutdown occurs, - an APU shutdown occurs due to an APU fire, detected on ground, - the APU FIRE P/B is released out (in the cockpit), - the APU SHUT OFF P/B has been pressed on the external power receptacle panel. A vent APU fuel line pushbutton, located on the firewall allows the APU fuel feed line to be purged during ground maintenance. As long as the pushbutton is held pressed in, the APU fuel LP isolation valve is open and the APU fuel pump runs. A fuel drain and vent valve is installed in the APU compartment at the fuel inlet connection to the Fuel Control Unit. It permits fuel to be drained and air to be bled. APU INLET LOW PRESSURE SENSOR At the inlet connection of the Fuel Control Unit , a pressure sensor transmits low pressure information through the ECB to the ECAM APU page. The FUEL LO PR message is displayed on the ECAM APU page if it is selected and: - the APU speed is greater than 7% RPM - the fuel pressure is lower than 15.8 PSI . The ECB memorizes this information in its BITE memory even if the pressure increases above 17.3 PSI . FUEL DRAIN / VENT SYSTEM

FUEL SYSTEM DESCRIPTION OPERATION


GENERAL The fuel system provides metered fuel to sustain combustion. Part of the fuel is used as muscle pressure to operate the Inlet Guide Vane actuator and the surge valve actuator. FUEL CONTROL UNIT FUEL SHUT-OFF The Fuel Control Unit has five functions: - fuel filtering, - pressure increase, - fuel metering, - positive fuel shut-off, - fuel muscle pressure regulation. The Fuel Control Unit is composed of a low pressure fuel pump, a filter by-pass valve with a delta P indicator, a high pressure fuel pump with a Pressure Relief Valve, a constant delta P solenoid valve, a pressure regulator (for bleed/surge valve and IGV actuators), a fuel metering valve, and the 3 way solenoid valve. FUEL SCHEDULE
TMUAPAF01-T01 LEVEL 3

MUSCLE PRESSURE Fuel muscle pressure is used to operate the Bleed Control Valve (BCV) actuator (air delivery to the aircraft and air discharge to the exhaust) and the load compressor Inlet Guide Vane (IGV) actuator. Servo fuel is returned downstream to the low pressure pump outlet and upstream to the fuel filter inlet.

The Electronic Control Box controls the fuel solenoid valve (3 Way Solenoid Valve) for positive fuel shut-off. The valve is controlled open during the start sequence and closed during the stop sequence. Fuel is returned between the low pressure pump outlet and the fuel filter inlet. FLOW DIVIDER The Flow Divider and Drain Valve (FDDVA) divides the fuel between the pilot and main injectors. During the initial start sequence, only the pilot injectors are supplied.

UFD4200

The fuel metering valve is controlled by the Electronic Control Box through a torque motor. The ECB schedules fuel flow for start sequence, on speed operation and shutdown sequence. The Electronic Control Box modulates the on speed fuel schedule to match the aircraft demand for bleed air and electrical power.

FUEL SYSTEM DESCRIPTION OPERATION


FUEL DISTRIBUTION Fuel distribution is assumed by 3 pilot and 6 main fuel injectors. When APU start is selected, the pilot injector valve opens when fuel pressure reaches 20 psi. During normal running the two valves are in the open position and the fuel is allowed to supply both injector types. FUEL DRAIN The fuel drain and vent valve assembly is installed in the APU compartment at the fuel inlet connection to the FCU (drain of APU fuel feed line/bled of air for maintenance). In the Flow Divider and Drain Valve Assembly (FDDVA) and during shutdown, as the fuel pressure decreases, the two injector valves close. The fuel remaining in the pilot injector is purged to the exhaust by combustion chamber pressure. An FCU drain line purges the pump shaft seal. CONTROL The Electronic Control Box controls the fuel system using several parameters. During on speed operation, the ECB uses APU speed, Exhaust Gas Temperature and aircraft demand signals. During start, it uses speed, EGT, air inlet pressure and temperature probes (P1 and T1). The Electronic Control Box acts on the fuel metering valve and fuel shut-off 3 way solenoid valve. MONITORING Contamination of the fuel system is monitored by the differential pressure indicator which sends a signal to the ECB.

OIL SYSTEM DESCRIPTION


STORAGE The sump of the APU accessory gearbox is the oil reservoir. The accessory gearbox sump contains 5.2 l (1.4 US gal) of oil. On the left side of the gearbox is located a gravity fill port with a scupper to drain spilled oil. The gearbox has : - a fill tube for gravity filling, - an overflow drain, - a pressure fill connector, - a sight glass. SUPPLY The oil is drawn from the sump and pressurized by a vane type pressure pump. If the pump pressure is excessive, a pressure relief valve opens and releases oil back to the inlet gearbox. Regulated oil passes through a cooler and a disposable filter. The oil is then directed to the cooling fan splines, the APU spline shaft, the APU supporting bearings (Rear and front), the gearbox pinions and the electrical generator (AC generator and Generator spline shaft).
TMUAPAO01-T01 LEVEL 3

The oil from the APU rear bearing returns to the sump through a gerotor scavenge pump. Oil from the gearbox pinions and the APU front bearing is scavenged by gravity. VENTING The air oil mist from the rear bearing is returned to the gearbox housing through an external pipe. An air/oil separator removes the oil particules from the gearbox air. This oil free air is discharged in the APU exhaust. CONTROL The only component of the oil system controlled by the Electronic Control Box (ECB) is the de-oiling valve. The de-oiling solenoid valve is electricaly controlled open during APU start to ensure cold start conditions, to reduce the load on the pressure pump, and during APU shut-down to prevent coking of the oil remaining in the bearing chambers. PROTECTION The Electronic Control Box protects the APU in case of oil system malfunction. The ECB monitors oil pressure and oil temperature. If one of the oil parameters is out of range, the Electronic Control Box initiates an automatic APU shut down without time delay. - Gearbox high oil temp threshold : 135C - AC generator high oil temp : 180C - Oil low pressure : 35PSI

SCAVENGE Oil from the electrical generator and APU rear bearing is returned to the sump by two scavenge pumps. The oil from the AC generator returns to the sump through a vane type scavenge pump and a filter.

OIL SYSTEM DESCRIPTION


MONITORING The oil system is monitored to increase the APU life. Lube and scavenge filters are equipped with visual clogging indicators. The oil sump is equipped with a low level sensor to display maintenance information in the cockpit. When the level is at the "ADD" mark (4L/1USG) the APU must be able to continue running for at least 60 hours. A magetic drain plug, immersed in the APU oil, enables the oil drainage from the sump and attracts ferrous metal particules. Two delta P switches (one for the scavenge filter and a second for the pressure filter) inform the Electronic Control Box about a clogging situation (Class 2 fault message).

AIR SYSTEM DESCRIPTION OPERATION


BLEED SUPPLY Bleed air supply to the aircraft pneumatic system is controlled by a bleed Control valve (delivery function). The fuel operated bleed Control valve is a diverter valve (either to the aircraft system or the APU exhaust). BLEED CONTROL GEARBOX PRESSURIZATION The amount of air required by the pneumatic system is controlled by the load compressor Inlet Guide Vanes (IGV). The Inlet Guide Vanes are moved by a fuel powered actuator. SURGE PROTECTION Load compressor surge protection is also ensured by the Bleed Control valve which discharges the excess of air in the exhaust (surge function). OIL COOLING A gearbox driven fan draws filtered air from the inlet plenum and forces it to pass through the oil cooler. After leaving the oil cooler, the air is discharged overboard. The cooling fan incorporates a Permanent Magnet Generator (PMG) which provides an emergency direct current supply to the Electronic Control Box, should the main supply fail. The gearbox is vented to the APU exhaust. The air is bled after an air/oil separator action. Pressurized air enters the gearbox during operation from the front bearing seal buffering system (air from power section compressor). OIL VENT COMPARTMENT COOLING Air supplied by the fan (driven by one of the gears of the gearbox) is also used for APU compartment cooling. A pneumatic compartment cooling valve enables air to be blown through a smaller duct. Natural convection ventilates the APU compartment when the APU is not in operation.

APU SYSTEM MANAGEMENT


GENERAL The APU system management and control keeps the APU rotation speed constant to obtain a constant AC generator frequency output, protects the power unit from over temperature, avoids load compressor surge, controls safe APU start and eases the APU maintenance. The APU management system controls the following sequences: - power state - watch state - starting state - steady run state - cooldown state - shutdown state POWER UP STATE When the APU Master Switch is set to ON, The APU fuel Low Pressure shutoff valve opens and the APU fuel pump logic is energized. The ECB controls the opening of the air intake flap and initiates a Power Up test: - test of OBRM, ROM checksum, RAM read/write - test of speed injection, oil level,discrete and analog outputs WATCH AND START PREPARATION STATE After completion of the POWER UP state, the ECB automatically enters the WATCH state. Upon receipt of the start command, provided that there are no prohibitive conditions and rotation speed is less than or equal to 7% , the ECB enters the START PREPARATION state. STARTING STATE START P/B pressed + 100 mSecs When the START push-button has been pressed in, the ECB initiates the start sequence. The receipt of a stop signal at any time during the starting state leads to a shutdown without any cooldown. The main electrical stage selected by the ECB is: - Backup start contactor supply BACKUP START CONTACTOR SUPPLIED +1,5 SEC The main electrical stages selected by the ECB are: - gearbox de-oiling valve - ignition exciter control - main start contactor supply ROTATION SPEED N > 3% The main electrical stages selected by the ECB are: - 3 way solenoid valve for the HP fuel ON/OFF function, - fuel servovalve for the fuel metering function.

This is achieved by metering the fuel flow, which varies with the air inlet pressure and temperature. LOAD COMPRESSOR SURGE CONTROL This function avoids compressor surge. Note 1: In case of IGV control failure, the IGVs are closed. Note 2: In case of high EGT, the IGVs are closed. This is achieved by controlling and metering the position of the Bleed Control Valve, according to the inlet and discharge pressure signals of the load compressor (P/P ratio). If ECB detects a surge condition, the Bleed Control Valve is positioned to discharge air to exhaust. Note 1: In case of failure, the Bleed Control Valve is fully open to discharge. Note 2: In case of reverse flow operation, the APU is automatically shutdown by the ECB. EGT CONTROL This function avoids APU overtemperature by controlling the Inlet Guide Vane (IGV) position. Thus, the pneumatic load is first reduced to give the priority to the electrical load. This is achieved by metering the position of the IGV as function of EGT and the operation mode Main Engine Start or Environmental Control System.

COOLDOWN STATE At stop command MASTER SW Off, all loads are removed (IGV closed, Bleed Control Valve to discharge, AC generator excitation cut out)then the engine goes into a 120 second cooldown cycle. This function runs the APU at a low stabilized temperature before normal shutdown. NORMAL SHUTDOWN An APU normal shutdown is initiated when the MASTER SW pushbutton is released out. If the APU bleed air is not selected, the APU shuts down immediately. The normal shutdown signal stops the fuel supply, This causes the APU to decelerate. The AVAIL indication goes off and the AC generator de-energizes. When the speed is less than 90 %, the gearbox de-oil solenoid valve opens. When the speed is less than 7% RPM, the air intake flap is controlled to fully closed. PROTECTIVE SHUTDOWN When the ECB is powered, it controls the APU starting and running phases. If an abnormal parameter is detected, it initiates an immediate shutdown without time delay, even if APU bleed air system is used. ECB PROTECTIVE SHUTDOWN PARAMETERS: - OVERSPEED - OVERTEMPERATURE - LOW OIL PRESSURE - HIGH OIL TEMPERATURE - START PERIOD TIMER - SENSOR FAILURE - AIR INTAKE FLAP - NO FLAME - REVERSE FLOW - NO ACCELERATION - LOSS OF DC POWER - ECB FAILURE - GENERATOR HIGH OIL TEMPERATURE - LOSS OF SPEED SENSING - IGV SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY SHUTDOWN The ECB initiates an Emergency shutdown when either the APU FIRE pushbutton (located in the cockpit) is released out or when the APU SHUT OFF pushbutton (located on external power receptacle panel) is pressed. The ECB initiates an automatic Emergency shutdown when an APU FIRE is detected on ground. The APU shuts down immediately without time delay, even if the APU bleed air system is used.

ECB INTERFACES
POWER SUPPLY The Electronic Control Box is electrically supplied, through the APU MAIN control relay, by at least one of the aircraft batteries, the aircraft DC network and/or from the 28 VDC Permanent Magnet Generator. MASTER SWITCH PUSHBUTTON The APU MASTER SWITCH sends a discrete supply or stop signal to the ECB. The Electronic Control Box sends a discrete signal to the FAULT light when an automatic shutdown occurs or a Power Up Test fails. AIR INTAKE FLAP The ECB receives an air intake flap open or closed position signal and sends a power output for opening or closing the air intake flap. START PUSHBUTTON A discrete input signal from the START pushbutton initiates the starting sequences. The ECB sends a discrete signal to the ON light during APU start sequence. A discrete output signal to the aircraft energizes the AVAIL light in the START pushbutton when the APU speed is above 95 %. The ECB receives a discrete signal from the APU Low Fuel Pressure Switch.It sends a discrete signal to the APU Fuel LP Shut OffValve. A discrete input signal from the aircraft initiates the APU shutdown logic after the ECB has received this signal. LGCIU 1 The ECB receives the flight/ground discrete input signal from the Landing Gear Control and Interface Unit 1 (LGCIU 1). This signal is used for automatic shutdown inhibition logic and for failed sensor logic. APU FUEL FEED SYSTEM BACK UP AND MAIN START CONTACTORS The ECB receives a discrete input from the Main Start Contactor and sends discrete outputs to the Back Up and the Main Start Contactors.

ECB INTERFACES
EIUs During engine starts, the ECB receives a Main Engine Start signal from Engine Interface Units 1 or 2. This signal causes the ECB to position the Inlet Guide Vanes to fully open and the Bleed Control Valve to modulate in delivery position. BMCs When the APU bleed pushbutton is set to ON, BMC 1 or 2 sends a discrete input to the ECB which controls the opening of the APU Bleed Control Valve. TSO/JAR The ECB receives a discrete input from the aircraft signature PIN programming This open or ground signal determines whether the ECB follows the Technical Standard Order (TSO) or the Joint Airworthiness Requirements (JAR). ZONE CONTROLLER The ECB receives, via an ARINC 429 bus, an input from the Zone Controller to control the IGV and the Bleed Control Valve position according to the demand. The ECB sends a discrete output to the Zone Controller to signal that the APU bleed control valve is in delivery position. The ECB is a type 1 computer and is connected to the Centralized Fault Display System via ARINC 429 Data buses. A320/321 The ECB receives a discrete input from the aircraft signature PIN programming This identification PIN allows the ECB to identify A321 applications for functional differences from those of an A320. GENERATOR OIL TEMPERATURE SENSOR The ECB receives an analog input from this sensor which is an aircraft supplied component mounted on the AC generator. SDACs The ECB sends to SDACs 1 and 2, via ARINC 429 Data buses, the indications to be displayed on the ECAM APU page and shutdown information to trigger the corresponding warnings. CFDS

APU COMPARTMENT ACCESS DOOR OPERATION


DOOR OPENING In the cockpit, open the APU circuit breakers. Position a work stand suitable to reach the aircraft under the APU compartment. The APU doors are secured by a total of seven latches, five latches secure the left door and two latches secure the right door. The left hand door must be opened first to gain access to the latches for the right hand door. Start by releasing the rear latch. Next, the three latches connecting the doors together are undone. As each latch is undone, secure the latch hook on the latch lever. Continue to release the remaining latches. When all latches have been released, pull the door open and secure with the door support strut. The strut is stowed at the forward end of the left door. Release the strut pip-pin from the door, extend the telescopic strut and secure to the aircraft using the pip-pin. Push the door open until the strut locks in the fully extended position. This completes the opening of the left hand door. With the left hand door open, the two latches securing the right hand door are now visible. The forward latch is released. Followed by the rear latch and the door is ready to be opened. Use the assist handle mounted on the air inlet duct and swing the door fully open. The door hold open mechanism incorporates a counterbalance spring that takes most of the door weight. The door will lock automatically in the door open position. No locking pins are necessary to secure the right hand door in the open position. A red coloured pip-pin is provided to lock the door hold open spring mechanism should it become necessary to remove the door from the aircraft. In this event the red pip-pin should be removed from its stowage and inserted in the adjacent hole with a red surround. To prevent injury, a placard advises against removal of the red coloured bolt when the access door is removed. This completes the APU door opening procedure. CAUTION: In event of door removal you must secure the right access door hold-open device by inserting the locking pin in the locking hole. The pin is stowed next to this locking hole.

APU COMPARTMENT ACCESS DOOR OPERATION


DOOR CLOSURE To close the right hand door, apply a lifting force to the door with one hand, and at the same time, tap the orange coloured release handle marked "PUSH" in a downward, outward direction to release the overcentre geometric lock on the door hold open mechanism. Lift the door to the closed position, using the assist handle on the air inlet duct. Secure the forward and rear latches on the right hand door. The left door support strut must be stowed before closing the left door. To release the lock on the left hand door support strut, pull down on the knurled collar. While holding the collar down, partially close the door. Hold the door with the left hand and with the right hand, release the door support strut pip-pin from the aircraft. Stow the support strut on the door. Close the left door. Secure the forward latch. Ensure that the latch release lever is flush with the latch. Secure the rear latch. Secure the three latches holding the left and right doors together. To secure these latches: - Release the latch hook by pressing the latch release lever. - Engage the latch hook in the locking bracket. - Close the latch lever. - Ensure that the latch release lever is flush with the latch. Repeat the closing procedure for the remaining latches. Carry out a final visual inspection to ensure that all latches are secure. This completes the APU access door closing procedure. Finally, reset the APU circuit breakers in the cockpit.

CFDS SPECIFIC PAGE PRESENTATION


APU DATA/OIL To gain access to the SYSTEM REPORT/TEST APU MENU, the APU MASTER SWITCH must be set to ON. The APU is a type 1 system. It is not available in CFDS back-up mode. The APU DATA/OIL page gives the : - APU serial number - APU operating hours - APU cycles - APU oil level. "OIL LEVEL:LOW" replaces"OIL LEVEL:OK" when the oil quantity decreases to 3.69 l (3.9 qt.). Each APU contains a serial number encoder which provides the information required for proper CFDS interpretation, continuity of LRU fault history, hours and cycles of the APU. When you replace an APU or a serial number encoder, the ECB resets the APU hours and cycles to zero. The Data Management Unit (DMU) of the Aircraft Integrated Data System (AIDS) also calculates the APU hours and cycles so that their records are not lost when an ECB is replaced. PERFORMANCE SETTINGS
TMUAPWY06-T01 LEVEL 3

Base maintenance staff cannot modify these settings which are programmed by adjusting the various electronic switches within the ECB (5 levels available) following the aircraft operating conditions. SHUTDOWNS. The APU SHUTDOWNS page gives the reason of the shutdown (OVERSPEED) and the related LRUs causing the fault(classed in descending probability order) . Refer to the TSM to trouble shoot the faulty component which caused the shutdown.

The APU Performance Settings page gives the settings of: - EGT trim - COOLDOWN time
