Aircraft SystemsInduction Systems
• Two types of induction systems are commonly used in small aircraft engines:
• 1. The carburetor system, which mixes the fuel and air in the carburetor before this mixture enters the intake manifold.
![Page 5: Warm-Up – 2/7 – 10 minutes](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051020/568163e4550346895dd54453/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)

• 2. The fuel injection system, which mixes the fuel and air immediately before entry into each cylinder or injects fuel directly into each cylinder.

Aircraft SystemsMixture Control
• Carburetors are normally calibrated at sea-level pressure, where the correct fuel-to-air mixture ratio is established with the mixture control set in the FULL RICH position.

• However, as altitude increases, the density of air entering the carburetor decreases, while the density of the fuel remains the same.

Aircraft SystemsExhaust Systems
• Engine exhaust systems vent the burned combustion gases overboard, provide heat for the cabin, and defrost the windscreen.
• An exhaust system has exhaust piping attached to the cylinders, as well as a muffler and a muffler shroud.
![Page 25: Warm-Up – 2/7 – 10 minutes](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051020/568163e4550346895dd54453/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Aircraft SystemsExhaust Systems
• The exhaust gases are pushed out of the cylinder through the exhaust valve and then through the exhaust pipe system to the atmosphere.
![Page 26: Warm-Up – 2/7 – 10 minutes](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051020/568163e4550346895dd54453/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Aircraft SystemsExhaust Systems
• For cabin heat, outside air is drawn into the air inlet and is ducted through a shroud around the muffler.
• The muffler is heated by the exiting exhaust gases and, in turn, heats the air around the muffler.
• This heated air is then ducted to the cabin for heat and defrost applications.
![Page 27: Warm-Up – 2/7 – 10 minutes](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051020/568163e4550346895dd54453/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Aircraft SystemsExhaust Systems
• Exhaust gases contain large amounts of carbon monoxide, which is odorless and colorless.
• Carbon monoxide is deadly, and its presence is virtually impossible to detect.
• The exhaust system must be in good condition and free of cracks.
![Page 28: Warm-Up – 2/7 – 10 minutes](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051020/568163e4550346895dd54453/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Aircraft SystemsStarting Systems
• Most small aircraft use a direct-cranking electric starter system.
• This system consists of a source of electricity, wiring, switches, and solenoids to operate the starter and a starter motor.
• Most aircraft have starters that automatically engage and disengage when operated.
![Page 29: Warm-Up – 2/7 – 10 minutes](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051020/568163e4550346895dd54453/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Aircraft SystemsStarting Systems
• Electrical power for starting is usually supplied by an onboard battery, but can also be supplied by external power through an external power receptacle.
![Page 30: Warm-Up – 2/7 – 10 minutes](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051020/568163e4550346895dd54453/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Aircraft SystemsStarting Systems
• The starter will not operate until the starting solenoid is energized by the starter switch being turned to the “start” position.
• When the starter switch is released from the “start” position, the solenoid removes power from the starter motor.
![Page 31: Warm-Up – 2/7 – 10 minutes](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051020/568163e4550346895dd54453/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Aircraft SystemsStarting Systems
• When starting an engine, the rules of safety and courtesy should be strictly observed.
• One of the most important is to make sure there is no one near the propeller.
![Page 32: Warm-Up – 2/7 – 10 minutes](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051020/568163e4550346895dd54453/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Aircraft SystemsStarting Systems
• In addition, the wheels should be chocked and the brakes set, to avoid hazards caused by unintentional movement.
• To avoid damage to the propeller and property, the aircraft should be in an area where the propeller will not stir up gravel or dust.
![Page 33: Warm-Up – 2/7 – 10 minutes](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051020/568163e4550346895dd54453/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Aircraft SystemsCombustion
• During normal combustion, the fuel/air mixture burns in a very controlled and predictable manner.
![Page 34: Warm-Up – 2/7 – 10 minutes](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051020/568163e4550346895dd54453/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Aircraft SystemsCombustion
• Detonation is an uncontrolled, explosive ignition of the fuel/air mixture within the cylinder’s combustion chamber.
• It causes excessive temperatures and pressures which, if not corrected, can quickly lead to failure of the piston, cylinder, or valves.
![Page 35: Warm-Up – 2/7 – 10 minutes](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051020/568163e4550346895dd54453/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Aircraft SystemsCombustion
• In less severe cases, detonation causes engine overheating, roughness, or loss of power.
• Detonation is characterized by high cylinder head temperatures and is most likely to occur when operating at high power settings.
![Page 36: Warm-Up – 2/7 – 10 minutes](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051020/568163e4550346895dd54453/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Aircraft SystemsCombustion
• Common operational causes of detonation are:• Operation of the
engine with extremely high manifold pressures in conjunction with low rpm.
• Operation of the engine at high power settings with an excessively lean mixture.
![Page 37: Warm-Up – 2/7 – 10 minutes](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051020/568163e4550346895dd54453/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
Aircraft SystemsCombustion
• Detonation may be avoided by following these basic guidelines during the various phases of ground and flight operations:• Keep the cowl flaps
(if available) in the full-open position while on the ground to provide the maximum airflow through the cowling.
![Page 38: Warm-Up – 2/7 – 10 minutes](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051020/568163e4550346895dd54453/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
Aircraft SystemsCombustion
• Use an enriched fuel mixture, as well as a shallower climb angle to increase cylinder cooling during takeoff and initial climb.
• Avoid extended, high power, steep climbs.
• Monitoring the engine instruments to verify proper operation
![Page 39: Warm-Up – 2/7 – 10 minutes](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051020/568163e4550346895dd54453/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
Aircraft SystemsCombustion
• Preignition occurs when the fuel/air mixture ignites prior to the engine’s normal ignition event.
![Page 40: Warm-Up – 2/7 – 10 minutes](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051020/568163e4550346895dd54453/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
Aircraft SystemsCombustion
• Preignition causes the engine to lose power, and produces high operating temperature.
• As with detonation, preignition may also cause severe engine damage, because the expanding gases exert excessive pressure on the piston while still on its compression stroke.
![Page 41: Warm-Up – 2/7 – 10 minutes](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051020/568163e4550346895dd54453/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
Aircraft SystemsCombustion
• Detonation and preignition often occur simultaneously and one may cause the other.
• It is often difficult to distinguish between the two.
![Page 42: Warm-Up – 2/7 – 10 minutes](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051020/568163e4550346895dd54453/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
Aircraft SystemsCombustion
• Using the recommended grade of fuel and operating the engine within its proper temperature, pressure, and rpm ranges reduce the chance of detonation or preignition.

Class SummaryIgnition Systems
• Carburetor heat is an anti-icing system that preheats the air before it reaches the carburetor, and is intended to keep the fuel/air mixture above the freezing temperature to prevent the formation of carburetor ice.
