DETECTION OF FAN CASE LINER DAMAGE DURING TURBINE ENGINE OPERATION

An aircraft (100) includes a turbine engine (108), a vibration sensor (113), and a processor (116). The vibration sensor (113) is attached to the turbine engine (108) and is configured to output a vibration sensor (113) signal. The processor (116) is programmed to determine whether the vibration sen...

Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	An aircraft (100) includes a turbine engine (108), a vibration sensor (113), and a processor (116). The vibration sensor (113) is attached to the turbine engine (108) and is configured to output a vibration sensor (113) signal. The processor (116) is programmed to determine whether the vibration sensor (113) signal indicates that fan case liner damage has occurred due to icing conditions. The processor (116) is further programmed to indicate that a fan case inspection should be conducted in response to the vibration sensor (113) signal indicating that fan case liner damage has occurred.
