VSV SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
The Variable Stator Vane (VSV) system positions the HPC stator vanes
to the appropriate angle to optimize HPC efficiency. It also improves the
stall margin during transient engine operations. The VSV position is
calculated by the ECU using various engine parameters, and the necessary
fuel pressure is delivered by the HMU dedicated servo valve. The VSV
system is located at the front of the HP compressor.
The VSV system is composed of:
A series of actuators and bellcrank assemblies
Two hydraulic actuators
Two feedback sensors (in actuators)
Two bellcrank assemblies
Four actuation rings
Variable stator stages (inside HPC case)
Inlet Guide Vanes (IGVs)
Variable Stator Vanes (VSVs)
