NOTES FOR TABLE V/ JI.

1. During shutdown, while the APU is decelerating no load, the salt solution shall continue to be sprayed into the APU until the rotor has come to rest.

2. The test facility blower system shall provide the flow of salt-laden air through the AFU gas flowpath(s) and over the external surfaces of the APU.

3. APO inlet and exhaust openings shall remain open for all phases of the test cycle.

4. Sa l t solution ingested by the A?U s hall conform to that s peci fied in Note 7 below , and shall be regulated to provide a constant concentration of 200 ppb by weight of salt in air during those phases of each cycle which require sa lt ingestion . Add it i onal distilled water may be added to t he salt solution, as required, to provide a uniform salt aerosol p rofile across the face of the APU inlet. A salt sampling syste~ shall be employed to determine the concentration level during each cycle of operation.

S. Phase l - APU Operating cycle ( total a~=umulative ti~e - three hours)

(l) Four t e n-minute cycles , each cons ~s ~i ng of five min utes at max imum continuous load foll owed by five minutes at no load.

(2) 110 minutes at maximum load.

(3) Three ten-mi nu te cycles, each cons is ~ing of five minutes at maximum continuous load f ol:owed by five minutes at no load.

6 . Phase S - APU Operating cyc l e (total ac=~~ulative time - three hours).

** When possible, continuously swept frequencies shall be used to test items. However, when test facility limitations require the use of discrete frequencies, the minimum (but not the maximum) nwnber of frequencies depicted shall be used during the test. The discrete frequencies shall be based upon MIL-HDBK-235 and will be uniformly spaced across each band, When discrete frequencies are required for test, they will be approved by the AVSCOM Directorate for Engineering.
