Module 11. Aeroplane aerodynamics, structures and systems
On large aircraft, braked wheel assemblies are normally inflated with
• nitrogen.
• nitrogen and not more than 5% of air.
• an argon and CO2 mixture.
soonhchong asking:
• refer to JAR 25.733 Tyres (e)
tyres mounted on brakedwheels must be inflated with dry nitrogen or other gases shown to be inert so that the gas mixture inthe tyre does not contain oxygen in excess of 5% by volume..
nitrogen and not more than 5% of air, will be more correct?
