A. Major Components
(Ref. Fig. 002)
(1)
Exhaust Muffler Body
(a)
Muffler Substructure It is a riveted corrosion resistant steel (CRES) structure, made of frames, an outer tube and provisions for external seals and insulation segments. It has the subsequent functions:
-
it is the load carrying structure of the complete muffler assembly,
-
it is the muffler resonator,
-to attach the muffler assembly to the rails in the tailcone muffler compartment.
(b)
Tail Pipe Assembly Its central part is made of feltmetal (sound attenuation CRES sheet metal). The end pieces are made of solid CRES sheet metal. The aft tube section is welded to the muffler substructure. The central tube section is put in from the front and positioned against the aft tube section. The forward tube section, which has a provision for the sealing ring, is then put in and riveted to the muffler substructure. Thus the feltmetal tube section is captured between the end sections with sufficient play to allow for thermal expansion differences.
(c)
Insulation Covers The complete exterior surface of the muffler is covered with 2 large insulation blankets and several small insulation segments. These are held in position with lockwire, fastened to the buttons on the insulation components. The function of these is to reduce the muffler assembly surface temperature to a maximum of 232 deg. C for all ambient temperatures or APU operating conditions.
(d)
Sealing ring This component is installed in a recess on the inner liner forward-tube-section. It is in continuous contact with the hot nozzle assembly. Thus it seals the clearance between these assemblies and allows for relative movement between them.
(e)
FR84 Fire Wall Seal A circumferential fireproof seal is installed on a bracket on the muffler substructure. It seals the gap between the fire wall cutout in FR84 and the exhaust muffler assembly.
(2)
Hot Nozzle Assembly This component is directly attached to the APU turbine flange with a standard V-clamp. It is in contact with the tail pipe assembly through the sealing ring and the muffler body through the externally installed bellows. Thus APU movement is not transmitted to the ridgidly installed muffler assembly. A drain port is installed at the lowest point (Ref. 49-17-00).
(3)
Bellows It is the flexible connection between the hot nozzle and the muffler body. It is also a back-up seal to prevent exhaust gas leakage into the APU compartment and thus compartment contamination. It is attached to both items with conventional band clamps. It is ridgid enough to position the hot nozzle assembly, yet flexible enough to permit relative movement between the APU and the muffler body.
(4)
V-Clamp Insulation Segments To make sure that the surface temperature does not exceed 232 Deg. C, the connection between the APU turbine flange and the hot nozzle assembly is insulated. Two half-circle insulation segments cover the interface, held in position with lockwire fastened to the buttons on these items.
B. Muffler Assembly Installation (Ref. Fig. 001) Support rails align the assembly with the APU. Longitudinal positioning is provided at the rear attachment brackets only. Lateral positioning is made by fixing the assembly to the left rail. The distance between the rails is 6mm larger than the distance between the muffler assembly attachment brackets. Thus the muffler assembly is positioned 3mm to the left of the APU longitudinal axis. The attachment at the right rail allows for thermal expansion differences. The 3mm displacement is taken up at the muffler assembly/APU turbine flange interface by the bellows and the sealing ring.
