Embodiment Construction

[0025] Such as figure 1 As shown in , the aircraft 100 may include, for example, in a nacelle surrounding the engine 101 , below the engine 101 , an onboard storage 103 for receiving fluid discharged from the engine 101 , in particular in flight. The evacuation and monitoring device 10 according to the first embodiment can be installed onboard on an airport service vehicle 150 to be moved to the aircraft 100 in order to continue to evacuate the fluid discharged from the engine 101 of the aircraft 100 .

[0026] as in figure 2 As shown in more detail in , the emptying and monitoring device 10 may comprise a first inlet channel 12 with a valve 15, a first reservoir 11 connected to the first inlet channel 12, a valve 14 for exhausting Empty the channel 13 of the first reservoir 11 , the first mass sensor assembly 17 and the first liquid level sensor 18 installed in the first reservoir 11 .

[0027] The first inlet channel 12 can be configured to receive fluid expelled from the...

Abstract

The invention relates to the field of aeronautics propulsion, and more specifically to a device and a method for emptying and monitoring (10) for emptying and monitoring a fluid drained from an engine(101) of an aircraft (100). The emptying and monitoring device (10) comprises at least one first intake passage (12) for receiving, directly from the aircraft (100), fluid drained from the engine (101), and a first quality sensor assembly (17) for detecting at least one quality parameter of the fluid drained from the engine (101) that has been admitted through the first intake passage (12).

Description

technical field [0001] The present disclosure relates to the field of aeronautical propulsion, and more particularly to an evacuation and monitoring device for evacuating and monitoring fluid expelled from an aircraft engine. Background technique [0002] In this context, the term "aircraft engine" is understood to mean any propeller, in particular a gas turbine engine, such as a turbojet, turbofan, turboprop or Turboshaft engines, and piston engines or electric motors. [0003] Typically, an aircraft engine includes moving parts that are subject to high mechanical and thermal stress. Therefore, it is often important to supply lubricating fluid to certain elements of the engine, particularly the rotary shaft support bearings. In addition, aircraft engines may also comprise hydraulic actuators, which may in particular use fuel as hydraulic fluid and / or as lubricant. Some of these fluids can escape through evaporation or liquid flow and represent a potential source of envir...
