Comparative Evaluation of Allison T56 Engine Chip Detectors

Abstract

Several new chip detectors were compared with types presently in use in the Allison T56 engine. The detectors were ranked according to the mass of debris collected in a set period. The tests indicated that two of the new plugs gave satisfactory performance, and hence could be used as replacements for current types. Two of the new plugs gave lower performance than existing plugs. Australia.
