Week 5 Discussion 2

5.3 - Discussion: Turbines and Props

Answer the following questions in this discussion forum, along with any additional questions your instructor may post.

Use deductive and inductive logic when consider the following: 

1.      What is meant by the general investigative expression, 'Turbines may have a memory'? (Note: the word “memory” in this case does NOT refer to a human factors issue)

2.      Explain why a modern turbine engine is easier to analyze (from an accident investigation
perspective) than a reciprocating engine. What evidence is gained?

3.      What is meant by 'critical flows' needed by a turbine engine to operate properly?

4.      Also, describe the term “feathering” as it pertains to propeller function and why it’s important be aware of this during an aviation safety investigation.

A substantial response shows thought and critical thinking; a short, two or three sentence response is not acceptable. Support your opinions with references. You may use course material, but be specific. Personal experiences etc. may be used to enhance your perspective of the questions but they must be valid and relative to the subject matter. Your instructor will evaluate your posts using the discussion rubric.

Read the posts of your classmates, reply and evaluate at least one other student's posting.
