Diagnostic and Condition Monitoring System Assessment for Army Helicopter Modular Turboshaft Engines.
Abstract
Needs for and means of improving D&CM and troubleshooting to modules and LRUs for T700-GE-700 engine in Army environment were studied. Recommendations are: (1) Do not modify existing METS for modular fault isolation. However, do computerize the acquisition of the overall engine performance data, (2) introduce the slave chip detector to the depot, (3) expand evaluation of the control system analyzer by Black Hawk companies, (4) support the development of degaussing chip detector, (5) initiate Phase I of multipurpose airborne D&CM system which combines performance, life, overtemp and chip detector monitors, and (6) continue to acquire T700 field data and develop a method to quantify D&CM payoffs such as better engine availability.
