(Ref. Fig 73-00-00--15700-06-A - Fuel System - General Schematic)
The fuel system enables delivery of a fuel flow corresponding to the power required and compatible with engine
limits.
The system consist of :
• the two stage fuel pump with low pressure and high pressure elements
• the hydromechanical unit, FADEC controlled
• the oil/fuel heat exchanger
• the servo fuel heater
• the IDG oil cooler
• the fuel filter
• the fuel return valve
• the fuel flow transmitter
• 20 dual cone fuel nozzles (16 standard and 4 pilot nozzles)

(Ref. Fig 73-00-00--15600-06-A - Fuel System - Block Diagram)
(Ref. Fig 73-00-00--15700-06-A - Fuel System - General Schematic)
The fuel supplied from the tanks flows through a centrifugal pump, then through the oil/fuel heat exchanger and
the HP fuel pump and filters.
The fuel from the HP fuel pump is delivered to the HMU in two flows :
• the main flow is directly supplied to the HMU section which controls the fuel flow supplied to the fuel
nozzles (through the fuel flowmeter).

• the other part of the fuel flow passes through the servo fuel heater.
Then it flows to the HMU to elaborate reference pressures to control :
• the active clearance control
• the compressor control (VBV, VSV).
The unburned fuel from the HMU and the return flow from the servos are mixed through the IDG oil cooler.
The fuel flow goes then :
• One part back to the centrifugal pump outlet.
• One part back to the tank, mixed with cold fuel from the centrifugal pump outlet (only if the fuel return
valve is open).
4. Controlling
(Ref. Fig 73-00-00--16000-06-A - FADEC - Schematic)
A Full Authority Digital Engine Control (FADEC) controls the engine.
The FADEC achieves steady state and transient engine performances when operated with subsystems.
The FADEC is a dual channel ECU with cross talk and failure detection capability.
If a fault is detected, the FADEC will switch from one channel to the other.
If the two channels have an equal health status and N2 was more than 11000 RPM during last engine run,
channels selection alternates with every engine shut-down.
The ECU channel selection is done on an alternating basis:
- When channel A is active at engine shutdown, channel B will become active at next ECU power-up.
- When channel B is active at engine shutdown, channel A will become active at next ECU power-up.
The channel that becomes active during engine start will remain active for the whole flight on condition that a
fault does not occur in flight.
If a fault occurs, the ECU will select the channel with the better health status as the active channel.
A simplified hydromechanical unit includes a fuel metering valve and servo valves to control the compressor
(VBV, VSV) and engine clearances.
The FADEC system performs the following functions:
• the control of the fuel flow and engine air flow and bleeds (to automatically maintain forward, reverse
thrust setting and provide satisfactory transient response)
• the engine limits protection
• the automatic starting capability
• the engine clearance control
• extensive diagnostic and maintenance capability
• thrust reverser operation.
5. Indicating
The engine fuel system is monitored from :
• the ECAM display
• the warning and caution lights.
The indications cover all the main engine parameters through the FADEC.
The warnings and cautions reflect :
• the engine health and status through the FADEC
• the FADEC health and status
• the fuel filter condition through a dedicated hardwire.
The indications are detailed in the dedicated sub-chapters.
