Module 15. Gas turbine engine

The exhaust gas temperature (E.G.T ) indicator on a gas turbine engine provides a relative indication of the

  • turbine inlet temperature.
  • temperature of the exhaust gases as they pass the exhaust cone.
  • exhaust temperature.
Diverdeep asking:

The exhaust gas temperature (EGT) is typically defined as the gas temperature at the exit of the turbine

Module 15. Gas turbine engine

Nozzle guide vanes give a

  • pressure increase, velocity decrease.
  • pressure increase, velocity increase.
  • pressure decrease, velocity increase.
Diverdeep asking:

nozzle guide vane are associated with compression section, so they're used to maximise compression performance (they're divergent) by decrease the speed & increasing pressure gain for each stage

Module 15. Gas turbine engine

Upon what quality or characteristic of a lubricating oil is its viscosity index based?

  • Its rate of flow through an orifice at a standard temperature.
  • Its rate of change in viscosity with temperature change.
  • Its resistance to flow at a standard temperature as compared to high grade paraffin base oil at the same temperature.
Diverdeep asking:

viscosity is defined as mm^2/s for a determined temperature.

Module 8. Basic aerodynamics

Extending a leading edge slat will have what effect on the angle of attack of a wing?

  • Increase the angle of attack.
  • Decrease the angle of attack.
  • No effect on angle of attack.
Tommibona asking:

The effect of the slat is to prolong the lift curve by delaying the
stall until a higher angle of attack. how does it possible that the angle of attack decreases?
