TASK 72-44-50-200-001-F00 HPT Stage 1 Cooling (TOBI) Duct - Examine, Inspection-001
General
This TASK gives the procedure for the inspection of the stage 1 HPT cooling duct. For the other part of the stage 1 HPT cooling duct assembly, refer to CoMat and SupEquip #s will be corrected once TIR is finalized. This comment serves as a blanket response for all comments related to CoMats and Support Equip in this document unless stated otherwise.CoMat and SupEquip #s will be corrected once TIR is finalized. This comment serves as a blanket response for all comments related to CoMats and Support Equip in this document unless stated otherwise.TASK 72-44-50-200-000 (INSPECTION/CHECK-000).
Fig/item numbers in parentheses in the procedure agree with those used in the IPC.
The policy that is necessary for inspection is given in the SPM TASK 70-20-00-200-501.
All the parts must be cleaned before any part is examined. Refer to the SPM TASK 70-10-00-100-501.
All parts must be visually examined for damage, corrosion and wear. Any defects that are not identified in the procedure must be referred to IAE.
The procedure for those parts which must have a crack test is given in Step and Step. Do the test before the part is visually examined.
Do not discard any part until you are sure there are no repairs available. Refer to the instructions in Repair before a discarded part is used again or oversize parts are installed.
Parts which should be discarded can be held although no repair is available. The repair of a discarded part could be shown to be necessary at a later date.
All parts must be examined to make sure that all the repairs have been completed satisfactorily.
The practices and processes referred to in the procedure by the TASK numbers are in the SPM.

Select the sonic nozzle with the correct throat diameter. Use the mathematical or the graphic method of nozzle selection given in the SPM TASK 70-72-01-720-501.
Install the IAE 2P16018 Airflow fixture 1 off on the test bench.
Secure the IAE 2P16019 Airflow adapter 1 off with the IAE 2P16020 Leak test ring 1 off, detail screws and washers.
Install the IAE 2P16020 Leak test ring 1 off on the inner ring of the adapter. Secure it with detail screws.
Set up the IAE 6P16080 Test bench.
Do an airflow restriction check each time you install the IAE 2P16018 Airflow fixture 1 off.
Clamp the IAE 2P16021 Airflow master 1 off in position on the fixture.
Install rubber stoppers into all the holes of the IAE 2P16021 Airflow master 1 off.
Do a shutoff valve leak check on the IAE 6P16080 Test bench 1 off.
If the pressure decrease is more than 7.0 psig (48.3 kPa) in 14 seconds, use CoMat 10-045 LEAK CHECK FLUID, BUBBLES-TYPE or a soap and water solution to find the source of the leak. The leaks must be repaired before you continue the airflow check.
NOTE
Do the leak check each day, before each time the airflow check is done or the test bench is repaired.Do leak check on the IAE 2P16018 Airflow fixture 1 off.
Select the calibration curve on which the calibration point, or the intersection of the flow parameter and pressure ratio lines, is within the airflow test limits so that you can do a test on the cooling duct. Refer to the SPM TASK 70-72-01-720-501.
NOTE
The procedure is valid only if the acoustical damper causes an increase in pressure that is less than 0.1 psig (0.69 kPa) or 0.2 in. (5.08 mm) of Hg. Refer to the SPM TASK 70-72-01-720-501 for the requirement to measure the increase in pressure that is caused by the acoustical damaper.Install an acoustical damper around the master. Refer to the SPM TASK 70-72-01-720-501.

CAUTION
WHEN YOU FLOW LARGE QUANTITIES OF AIR IN A SMALL, CLOSED ROOM, YOU CAN PRESSURIZE THE ROOM. IN THIS SITUATION, A BAROMETER MUST BE PUT INTO THE ROOM. USE ROOM PRESSURE, NOT ATMOSPHERIC PRESSURE, FOR TEST CALCULATIONS.With the master mounted on the test bench, do a one-point test bench calibration. Refer to the SPM TASK 70-72-02-720-501.
NOTE
One master tool is usually calibrated to more than one set of airflow test limits. For each calibration or set of test limits, a separate calibration curve is given. Each curve gives co-ordinates of calibration point and a system of letters that are metal-stamped near the air holes. These letters indicate which air holes were open during calibration.Set up and do an airflow check of the IAE 2P16021 Airflow master 1 off.
NOTE
This airflow check is necessary only if the airflow is changed by a service bulletin or the cooling duct vanes are repaired.NOTE
To get accurate results, you must do a leak check and calibrate the test bench.NOTE
If the test bench has absolute pressure gages, add the psig value given in the procedure to the current atmospheric pressure to get the psia value.Set up and do a leak check of the IAE 2P16018 Airflow fixture 1 off and the IAE 6P16080 Test bench 1 off.
Visually check the condition of the IAE 2P16018 Airflow fixture 1 off.
Mount the cooling duct on the IAE 2P16018 Airflow fixture 1 off as follows:
Install the IAE 2P16020 Leak test ring 1 off. Align the offset dowel pin hole in the ring with the dowel pin in the IAE 2P16018 Airflow fixture 1 off. Secure the ring with cap screws.
If the rate of pressure decrease if more than 7.0 psig (48.3 kPa) in 14 seconds, use CoMat 10-045 LEAK CHECK FLUID, BUBBLES-TYPE or a soap and water solution to find the source of the leak. The leaks must be repaired before you continue the airflow check.
Remove the IAE 2P16020 Leak test ring 1 off.
Do the air leak check each time you mount a cooling duct on the test fixture as follows:
NOTE
The procedure is valid only if the acoustical damper causes an increase in pressure that is less than 0.1 psig (0.69 kPa) or 0.2 in. (5.08mm) of Hg. Refer to the SPM TASK 70-72-01-720-501 for the requirement to measure the increase in pressure that is caused by the acoustical damper.Install an acoustical damper around the cooling duct. Refer to the SPM TASK 70-72-01-720-501 for the installation procedure.

CAUTION
THE AIRFLOW MEASUREMENTS OF THE COOLING DUCT MUST BE ACCURATE. THE COOLING DUCT CONTROLS THE COOLING AIRFLOW TO THE ROTATING PARTS IN THE HPT. THIS AIRFLOW IS VERY IMPORTANT FOR THE DURABILITY OF THE PART, THE THRUST BALANCE ON THE NO. 3 BEARING, AND ENGINE PERFORMANCE.
CAUTION
WHEN YOU FLOW LARGE QUANTITIES OF AIR IN A SMALL, CLOSED ROOM, YOU CAN PRESSURIZE THE ROOM. IN THIS SITUATION, A BAROMETER MUST BE PUT INTO THE ROOM. USE ROOM PRESSURE, NOT ATMOSPHERIC PRESSURE, FOR TEST CALCULATIONS.Do an airflow check of the cooling duct. Use the airflow check limits given in Figure.
