ENGINE AIR INTAKE ICE PROTECTION SYSTEM PRESENTATION
USERS
The Nacelle Anti-Ice (NAI) System is designed to prevent ice formation on the engine inlet which could affect the engine operation. The
engine air intake is heated during icing conditions using its related bleed air. The hot air is then discharged overboard.
SOURCE
Hot air for the Nacelle anti-ice system is supplied by a dedicated HP Compressor (HPC) bleed
7th stage on the CFM-LEAP.
VALVE
The NAI System is controlled and monitored by the Propulsion Control System (PCS) (EEC and EIU). Each engine NAI System consists of
two electrically controlled, pneumatically operated Pressure Regulating and Shut-Off Valves (PRSOV).
The EEC energizes the solenoid to CLOSE the PRSOV. Therefore, in case of loss of electrical power supply, the valves will go fully open
provided the engine bleed air supply pressure is high enough. In the absence of air pressure, the valve is spring-loaded to the closed position.
CONTROLS
When the ENG ANTI ICE P/BSW is selected ON, signals are sent to EEC for controlling the valves and to the EIU to calculate the bleed
decrements.
ECAM PAGE
If at least one of the two engine air intake anti-ice protection systems is selected ON, a message appears in green on the upper ECAM right
MEMO. The EEC monitors the valve position through transducers and processes them to generate necessary indications and warnin g
through the Flight Warning System (FWS). The FAULT indication in the PB S/W is activated by the PCS.

ENGINE AIR INTAKE ICE PROTECTION SYSTEM DESCRIPTION/OPERATION

NAI SYSTEM
Each engine air intake has its own independent Nacelle Anti-Ice
(NAI) protection system and control.
NAI System uses the hot bleed air from the 7th stage High
Pressure Compressor (HPC).
The air is sent through ducts, 2 Pressure Regulated Shut-Off Valves
(PRSOVs) located in Core Zone and is then discharged into the air
intake lip.
The EEC monitors the system operability with two
pressure Transducers (PTs) and Fan temperature sensor.
AIR INLET
The airflow exits the D-duct by a single exhaust grid at the bottom of the nacelle outside the fan. Ducts are insulated in the fan compartment, in
order to keep duct surface temperature below 200°C, to protect from duct burst and to minimize the risk of flammable fluids ignition

PRSOV CONTROL AND OPERATION
The NAI system is controlled and monitored by the Propulsion
Control System (PCS): Electronic Engine Control (EEC) and
Engine Interface Unit (EIU).The EECs control the PRSOV's
operation by
energizing/de-energizing the solenoids.
PRSOV 1 is controlled by EEC A and PRSOV 2 is controlled by EEC
B. Each PRSOV pneumatically regulates the downstream air
pressure. When the NAI PB S/W is selected to 'ON' position, the
EECs de-energize the 2 solenoids and the PRSOVs go to a
regulating or open position. The PRSOV 1 regulates the
upstream pressure at 88 psig then in cascade PRSOV 2 the
downstream pressure at 68 psig.
MONITORING
The EECs do a detailed monitoring of the PRSOVs with two
PTs (PT l & PT 2) located downstream each PRSOV.
PTI is located in between the PRSOVs in the AFT side of the
fan case. It gives the feedback to channel B only and use for
trouble shooting.
PT2 is located downstream of PRSOV 2 near where the
air is delivered. It gives the feedback to both the EEC
channels for monitoring function in case of single failure
of EEC channel. Two temperature sensors located in the
fan case bottom and top, provide the 2 EEC (channels) with
the fan compartment temperature measurement for NAI
leakage detection.
When the engine is running and a "HotAir Leakage" event is
detected, the EEC energizes PRSOVs solenoids, which
provide insulation function.

ENGINE ANTI ICE P/BSW
The P/B SW sends a discrete signal to the 2 EEC channels to operate the PRSOVs. The 2 EECs check valid signal through the Cross Channel
Data Link (CCDL).
The P/B SW position and the opposite engine P/B SW position are monitored by the EIU for computing the bleed decrements.
The "FAULT" light is triggered by the EIU based on the input from EEC. It appears when the engine is running and NAI is failed in OPEN or
CLOSED. It also appears in case of monitoring fault.
PCS (EEC and EIU)
The EEC controls the PRSOV to open when the P/B SW is set to ON. The EEC monitors the position of the PRSOV by the two NAI
transducers to trigger associated fault messages.
Failure messages are computed by the EEC and sent by the EIU to the FWS and CFDIU.
FAILURE CONDITION
The fail safe position of the valves in case of EEC dual channel failure is OPEN.
In case of a single valve failure, the corresponding valve being failed open, the anti-ice function is still available.
Per Master Minimum Equipment List (MMEL) a PRSOV can be manually locked open or closed.
The two pressure Transducers (PTl for core zone and PT2 for fan zone) monitors leak or burst scenarios and a dual fan case thermocouple
helps in identifying over temperature conditions due to leaks or burst. The EEC monitors the same and generates warning messages to the
FWS.
The Upstream and Downstream PRSOVs are commanded and latched to OFF if a burst duct is detected ignoring the NAI Command
Selection.
They remain latched until the engine is shutdown (N2<20% and Master
Lever in Off position) and the A/C is on the ground.
