    Airbus A320 Hydraulic System Description: Article

    Uploaded by

    Wellington Oliveira
    The document summarizes the hydraulic system used on Airbus A320 aircraft. It describes that the A320 has three independent hydraulic systems called Green, Yellow, and Blue. The Green and Yellow systems are powered by engine-driven pumps, while the Blue system can be powered by an electric pump or a Ram Air Turbine in emergencies. A Power Transfer Unit allows the Green and Yellow systems to pressurize each other if a pump fails. All hydraulic components and controls are displayed on the aircraft's ECAM hydraulic page and controlled via the overhead hydraulic control panel.

    ABSTRACT with the hydraulic control panel. The hydraulic system is


    fully automatic. However each pump and the PTU have an
    A hydraulic drive system is a quasi-hydrostatic drive or trans-
    associated pushbutton switch for abnormal operations. Each
    mission system that uses pressurized hydraulic fluid to power
    hydraulic engine pump is controlled by a pushbutton siwtch
    hydraulic machinery. The term hydrostatic refers to the trans-
    located on the overhead panel.Each hydraulic electrical pump
    fer of energy from pressure differences, not from the kinetic
    is controlled by a pushbutton siwtch.The PTU is controlled
    energy of the flow. The A320 has three independent hydraulic
    by a pushbutton switch. The RAT may be extended manually
    systems: Green, Yellow and Blue
    by using the guarded pushbutton switch.

    AIRBUS CBT TRAINING-PILOT STORIES
    The green and yellow hydraulic systems are each pressurized
    by an engine driven pump. The yellow hydraulic system can
    also be pressurized by an electric pump. A Power Transfer
    Unit (PTU) enables the green system to be pressurized by the
    yellow system and vice versa. The PTU is designed to power
    a hydraulic system in case of pump failure.It is not designed
    to be used when the hydraulic system has a fault, such as an
    overheat, low reservoir or low air pressure. In addition, the
    PTU is inhibited from operating: 1-When the parking brake
    is ON and only one ENG MASTER switch is ON 2-When
    tha parking brake is OFF, nose wheel is deactivated, and only
    one ENG MASTER switch is ON 3-When the cargo doors are
    being operated 4-When the PTU Switch is off
    Fire shut off valves are located between the reservoirs and
    the engine driven pumps. The BLUE haydraulic system is
    pressurized by an electric pump.In an emergency, the BLUE
    system can be pressurized by the Ram Air Turbine: RAT Each
    hydraulic system delivers a constant pressure to the users.

    All the components we have talked about are displayed on


    the ECAM HYD page.The controls for the components we
    have introduced are located on the overhead hydraulic con-
    trol panel. Let’s now go to the ECAM/HYD page together
