Description and ReasonNOTE: Important Safety Information.

This TR adds a description of the modification that revises the thrust reverserindications on the center instrument panel per DC-10 Service Bulletin DC10 78-060. In addition, information is added to this functional description regarding theoperation of the thrust reverser indication system with Synchronous shaft (SYNC)locks added per DC-10 Service Bulletins DC10-78-063 and DC10-78-064. Thismodification retains the REVERSER UNLOCK and REVERSE THRUSTfunctions but changes the nomenclature to REV U/L and REV THR and adds aREV PRES light for each engine.

The REV PRES light illuminates when the thrust reverser actuation system ispressurized or if a SYNC Lock is unlocked. The light will normally illuminateevery time the thrust reversers are in transition to the deployed position and whilethe thrust reverser is in transition to the stowed position and should extinguishwithin 5 seconds of the REV U/L light extinguishing. If the light illuminates duringor after takeoff, it indicates that a failure in the system has taken place. If thisoccurs the pilot is required to take specific actions, including disconnectingautothrottle. In this case maintenance is required before the next flight.

If the REV PRES light is illuminated prior to takeoff, maintenance is requiredbefore flight. If the light is inoperative the crew will not know that the thrustreverser actuation system is pressurized.

During normal T/R deployment, the flight engineer monitors the thrust reverserindications on the center instrument panel, to notify the pilot that he has allreversers deployed. If any Reverser Indicator Light does NOT illuminate when itis supposed to, it must be logged for maintenance before the next flight.

POWERPLANT

GENERAL

The aircraft is equipped with three Pratt &Whitney JT9D engines. Each engine has dualrotors; a low pressure compressor (N1) incor-porating a high bypass ratio fan, and a highpressure compressor (N2). A multiple stage(low and high pressure) turbine drives thecompressors and fan. The fan exhaust cowlcontains fan thrust reversers. Thrust reversersfor all three engines are identical.

DESCRIPTION

IGNITION SYSTEM

A dual ignition system is provided for eachengine. Each system is controlled by anengine ignition selector switch and an overrideand airstart switch. Ignition system A ispowered by the left emergency ac bus andsystem B is powered by the right emergencyac bus. Each system has an individual startingignition system and a continuous ignition sys-tem control mode. To energize the igniterplugs in a selected engine when using theSTART A or B positions, the applicable starterbutton must be pushed and the applicableengine fuel lever must be moved out of theOFF position. Moving the lever towardENRICH START or ON will energize the igni-tion system prior to initiating fuel flow. Thelever is moved to ENRICH START or ONposition at 16% N2 rotor speed depending ontemperature conditions. As the N2 rotor ac-celerates to approximately 45% N2 rpm thestart switch holding circuit is deenergized andthe engine starter switch pops out, discontinu-ing starting and ignition. The CONT A or Bpositions require only that the engine fuellever be ON. A single override and airstartswitch is provided for all three engines. Theoverride and airstart switch bypasses the fuellever switch, start switch, and the engine igni-tion selector switch to provide dual ignition to

all engines simultaneously. It also providespower to the start switch, should starter assistbe required for a restart.

On airplanes with Service Bulletin 74-2 incor-porated or production equivalent, the ignitionexciter power transfer switches enhanceairplane dispatch reliability. The switchesallow the power source for the B ignitors onengines 1 and 3 to be transferred from theright emergency ac bus to the left emergencyac bus and the power source for the A ignitorson engines 1 and 3 to be transferred from theleft emergency ac bus to the right emergencyac bus. The switches are intended for use onthe ground prior to engine start if system Aignition is inoperative.

STARTING SYSTEM

The engines can be started by pneumatic powerfrom an external source, the on-board APU, orany operating main engine. During engine startusing the APU, the APU will operate, automat-ically at N1 speeds up to 100% in normal controlto provide higher starting pressure. Startingpressure from any source is indicated by anapplicable pneumatic system pressure gage,depending upon source and the positions of theisolation valves. Each individual start switch,when pushed, is magnetically held if the engineignition selector is in one of two starting posi-tions provided, or if the override and air startswitch is at OVRD & AIR START position.When pushed and held, a light in the switch willcome on to indicate the associated engine startvalve is open. As engine N2 rotor crankingspeed reaches approximately 45% rpm, thestarter switch should pop out automatically andthe light will go off, indicating the start valve hasclosed. The start sequence may be terminatedat any time by manually disengaging the startswitch. For air start requirements, the starterscan be engaged at any engine speed up to 20%N2 rpm.

FUEL CONTROL SYSTEM

Fuel from the applicable wing tank enters thetwo stage engine-driven pump, then passesthrough the fuel heater, the fuel filter, the fuelcontrol unit, the fuel flow transmitter, fuel/oilcooler and the fuel manifold. The fuel controlunit contains a shutoff valve controlled by afuel lever on the pedestal. Fuel movingthrough the fuel heater is heated to preventfuel system icing. A pressure differentialswitch is provided across the main fuel filterwhich will activate an ICING light indicatingimpending clogging of the filter. If the filterclogs to a predetermined degree, fuel willbypass the filter to maintain flow to the engine.A fuel temperature selector switch is providedto indicate the fuel temperature at either ofthe three engines or at number 3 fuel tank. Aswitch is provided for each engine fuel heatsystem and a light is provided to indicate whenthe fuel heat valves are on.

A dual idle speed feature is incorporated in thefuel control. The ground/flight idle systemautomatically provides a low or high engineN2 idle rpm. Ground (low rpm) idle is theminimum operating rpm of the N2 and isintended to minimize thrust, fuel burn, noiseand jet blast. Flight (high rpm) idle providesan increased rpm which permits rapidresponse to throttle lever advancement,reducing the time required to attain highthrust. The ground and flight idle modes arecontrolled by the ground control relays, theground shift reverts to flight idle at liftoff andreturns to ground idle upon nose gear contactafter landing.

Ground idle is automatically provided in flightduring descent when the throttles are posi-tioned to forward idle. All engines will auto-

matically revert to flight idle when any one ofthe following occurs:

• One or more engine pneumatic sup-ply selectors are rotated to OFF.

• Engine 1 and/or 3 anti-ice switch(es)are moved to ON.

• One or more pack function selectorsare rotated to PACK OFF.

• Flaps are extended.

• Slats are extended.

• Gear handle is moved to DOWN.

• Main gear alternate gear extensionlever is raised.

The engine requires a relatively long time toaccelerate from ground idle to flight idle. Aninterlock prevents overboost in the autothrot-tle mode of operation by halting autothrottlelever advance at partial throttle, momentarily,before continuing to advance. In the event ofa rapid autothrottle advance out of the idleposition, the pause at partial throttle providestime for the engines to accelerate to an rpmlevel where the engines are rapidly responsive

to throttle position thus providing positiveautothrottle control of engine N1 levels.

On aircraft with Performance ManagementSystem (PMS) installed, when performancemode is selected, the PMS computer unitdetermines top of descent (TOD) point atwhich time the descent from cruise to holdingaltitude is initiated. With ground idle descentlogic satisfied prior to TOD, the PMS com-putes a later descent point to take advantageof fuel savings provided by ground idle

descent.

OIL SYSTEM

Each engine oil system is completelyself-contained. Oil for enginelubrication is supplied by an oiltank mounted on the engine accessorysection. Oil is pumped under pres-sure to the engine and is maintainedat proper pressure by a pressureregulator. Temperature is controlledautomatically by the fuel/oil coolerprior to engine entry. Oil returnsthrough oil scavenge pump and filterto tank. Oil quantity/ pressure/ andtemperature gages are provided toindicate conditions of the oil sys-tem. Oil pressure and oil strainerclog warning lights indicate impend-ing oil problems. If the filterclogs to a predetermined degree/ theoil will bypass the filter to main-tain flow to the engine.

VIBRATION INDICATING SYSTEM

Engine vibration is sensed by twovibration pickups mounted on eachengine. Diffuser case and turbinerear flange are monitored for vibra-tion velocity.

ENGINE FAILURE DETECTOR SYSTEM

A N1 difference detector alerts theflight crew of engine thrust loss onany of the three engines during take-off ground roll by turning on theENG FAIL lights. |

THRUST REVERSING SYSTEM

The thrust reverser system/ for eachengine/ is powered by regulatedpneumatic pressure from the engine.Each system is operated by the move-ment of the associated thrustreverser lever. The reverser levers/

mounted on the throttles, cannot bemoved (raised to the reverse thrustposition) unless the applicablethrottle is in the idle position. Todeploy the thrust reverser, thereverser lever is raised to thereverse thrust interlock (idle detent)position, where a mechanical stop atthe reverse idle detent position pre-vents any increase in thrust untilthe reverser is fully deployed.With all reversers deployed/ reversethrust can be increased symmetricallyafter reverser lever interlocks arereleased.

On aircraft with Service Bulletin78-40 incorporated or productionequivalent, an in-flight reversethrust interlock prevents deploymentof the thrust reversers unless thelanding gear is down.

Initial reverser lever movementunlocks the respective system/ startsreverser deployment which is indi-cated by the REVERSER UNLOCK andREVERSER VALVE OPEN lights caning on.The reverser system, when fullydeployed, will release the reverserlever interlocks for engine 1 and 3.For engine 2 reverser lever interlockrelease, full reverser deployment andnose gear ground shift mechanismactuation is required.

With interlock release, the REVERSETHRUST light comes on the REVERSERUNLOCK and REVERSER VALVE OPEN lightsgo off and the reverser lever canthen be raised past reverse idledetent into the reverse thrust powerrange.

When reducing reverse thrust, thereverser lever can be returned to thereverse idle detent position. Thisposition is felt as a slight increasein resistance to lever movement.There are no interlocks at any

JLNov 1/82 17-10-03

Page 7: McDonnell Douglas DC 10 40 Power Plant

intermediate position when coming outof reverse thrust. To stow thereversed, the reverser lever is movedthrough the reverse idle detent posi-tion to the forward idle position.As the reverser starts to stow, theREVERSE THRUST light goes off andstays off. The REVERSER UNLOCK andREVERSER VALVE OPEN lights come onand stay on during the stow transitand go off when the reverser is fullystowed.

Mechanically, reverse thrust isaccomplished by aft movement ofsections of the outer nacelle nozzleswhich exposes fixed cascades and bysealing off the fan exhaust ductswhich causes fan exhaust to dischargethrough the cascades producingdecelerating thrust vectors.

If a failure occurs, aerodynamicforces and mechanical loads on thereverser tend to hold the reverser inthe last selected position. If thereverser is deployed, and controlsystem failures start the stow cycle,the reverser lever will return to thereverse idle detent position.

THRUST COMPUTER INDICATOR

The thrust conputer indicator pre-sents digital displays of total airtemperature (TAT) and thrust ratingparameters (EPR LIM), provides ameans of manually selecting anoperational flight mode, indicates(by .thrust select switch-lights) theactive mode, and displays failureannunciation (by flags, by digitalreadout, and by thrust select switch-light going off).

The thrust computer utilizes inputfrom the central air data computer(CADC), total air temperature (TAT)

sensing, pressure altitude data,bleed air sensing, and EPR trans-ducers (to determine the fastestengine and/or an engine out condi-tion) to compute the respective EPRlimit for the selected flight mode.The EPR limit is updated continuouslyas the aircraft environment changes.

The following controls which directengine bleed air affect the thrustcomputer computation:

1. ENG PNEU SUPPLY selectors.

2. The 1-2 and/or 1-3 ISOL VALVEswitches.

3. WING & ANT ANTI-ICE switch.

4. Air conditioning PACK functionselectors.

5. ENG ANTI-ICE switches.

A monitor circuit performs an inter-nal self-test twice a second toverify the reliability of the compu-tations. Failure of the thrustcomputer indicator, CADC, or thrustcomputer is indicated by the activethrust select switch-light going off.Failure flags partially obscure theEPR LIM and/or TAT readout but thereadout may still be read for systemanalysis as follows:

1. Failure of TAT informationcauses display to read -50°CTAT and flag to appear.

2. Failure of CADC input to thethrust computer causes displayto read 1.55 EPR LIM and flagto appear.

3. Failure of thrust computercauses display to read 1.99EPR LIM and flag to appear.

17-10-04JL

Nbv 1/82

Page 8: McDonnell Douglas DC 10 40 Power Plant

Absence of input to the thrustcomputer indicator for morethan 3 seconds causes the EPRLIM flag to appear as is thecase when there is a differ-ence in the mode selected andthe mode that the thrustcomputer is in.

CONTROLS AND INDICATORS

Controls, indicators, and annuncia-tor lights are on the Pilot'sPedestal, Center Instrument Panel,Overhead Panel, and Flight Engi-neer's Lower Panel. Illustrationsof these panels are in Chapter1. Individual controls and indicatorsare illustrated and described inanother section of this chapter.
