Question Questions on "Airframe Systems"

I have some questions pertaining to aircraft system. Can somebody help?

Q1. Within the cold air unit of the ACM (Air Cycle Machine), the turbine causes
(a) the air tempertaure to rise

(c) the air to further compress
(d) the air pressure to be the same


Q2. In a vapour cycle cooling system, the lowest temperature of the refrigerant is at the _____?
(a) expansion valve
(b) compressor
(c) condenser
(d) evaporator


Q3. The refrigerant of a vapour cycle cooling system on entering the compressor is

(c) a low pressure vapour
(d) a low pressure liquid


Q4. Main and nose wheel bays are:
(a) pressurised
(b) unpressurised
(c) conditioned
(d) different, with the mains being unpressurised and the nose pressurised.


Q5. When would the negative differential limit be reached/exceeded?
(a) rapid descent when aircraft descends below cabin altitude
(b) during ground pressure testing
(c) rapid ascent when aircraft climbs
(d) when changing to manual operation


Q6. The term pressure cabin is used to describe
