Sample Questions

Question 1
What is the primary structural characteristic of a free power turbine turboshaft engine?
The power turbine spool is mechanically independent from the gas generator spool
The compressor, gas producer turbine, and output shaft are all mounted on a single rigid shaft
The main rotor is driven directly by the compressor turbine without a reduction gearbox
The engine uses a mechanical centrifugal clutch to decouple the gas generator during start
Question 2
Which statement best describes a fixed-shaft turboshaft engine configuration?
The compressor, gas turbine, and output drive shaft are mechanically coupled on a single common shaft
The engine features two independent turbine spools driven by separate combustion chambers
The main rotor can be held stationary with a rotor brake while the gas generator operates at idle
The engine utilizes aerodynamic coupling exclusively between the compressor and reduction gearbox
Question 3
What does the abbreviation N1 (or Ng) signify in turbine helicopter engine instrumentation?
Rotational speed of the gas producer/compressor spool as a percentage of maximum RPM
Rotational speed of the free power turbine output shaft driving the main transmission
Main rotor speed expressed in revolutions per minute
Total effective torque output percentage delivered to the main gearbox
Question 4
What parameter is indicated by N2 (or Nf) on a turboshaft engine tachometer?
Rotational speed of the free power turbine spool
Rotational speed of the first-stage axial compressor
Temperature of exhaust gases downstream of the combustor
Fuel flow rate in liters per hour delivered by the FCU
Question 5
What is the main function of the reduction gearbox in a helicopter turboshaft engine?
Reduce high turbine output RPM to an acceptable input RPM for the main rotor transmission
Increase engine shaft speed to boost tail rotor anti-torque efficiency
Automatically decouple the gas producer spool from the compressor during autorotation
Convert hydraulic pressure from the FCU into mechanical rotational torque
