September 14Sep 14 I saw the use of your fuel temperature simulation in the a380. In that case, I think your team figured out that fuel and bleed air can be used to cool the hydraulics, hydraulic pumps and engine oil through heat exchangers as a thermal heat sink and hopefully your team did notice as shown in the diagram shown below. However, it is different with the a380.Thus, one of the additional evolution to the existing failure system could include this: Thus, in an event of a fuel contamination, the heat exchanger gets clogged, the associated ECAM messages gets displayed and its only a matter of time before engine components get damaged and stuff leading to a LAND ANSA.As for the A380, I'll place it there as its irrelevant here because the FQMS and the HCMA control their respective heat exchangers in an event of an abnormal operation.Hope this helps!

6 hours ago6 hr Author Hi inikyle, one more thing about the additional improvements to the fuel simulation in case this one is planned to be implemented. It is not just the fuel FOHE being clogged, but also the fuel filter. This introduces unique challenges to long haul ETOPS flightCaption: Since the FOHE is clogged, the engine behavior might getaffected resulting in increased oil temperature with OIL TEMP HI andFUEL FILTER CLOGGED alerts. Since center tank not usable, it mightbe nose heavy. The logic should be applicable to the a380 but with adifferent procedure.And one more thing, its weird that the current a350 has no triggers relatedto EGT exceedance.Because according to FCOM, more than 900C EGT should trigger therespective ECAM alert:Then finally, since you guys have implemented the dynamic vibration, try to add a chance offan blade and cowling loss similar to the Air france 066 a380 incident in order to add consequencesfor mishandling the failure.Caption: Mishandling the engine failure whether oil, FOHE, EGT, engine fire, or engine vibrationmust have serious consequences. If this is not allowed to be modeled externally due to legal reasons, thenmaybe a vibrating cockpit and cabin due to the aerodynamic changes of a cowling loss will suffice due to this.And a low oil pressure/leak should give symptoms to the engine like abnormal high EGT, vibration,FADEC altn, GENERATOR faults before finally giving out to an engine seizure.Hope it helps!
