Abstract

APU is an important part of the large and medium-sized passenger jets, which is used to provide auxiliary power for the aircraft, including the auxiliary gas source and the auxiliary power source. The auxiliary gas source supplied by APU can be used to engine starting or the environmental control system in emergency condition. The auxiliary power supply can be used to replace one or two fault main generators for the power supply in the case of one or two main generators failure. The civil aircraft running scale of high high-altitude is continuous growing. The operating environment of high high-altitude is much worse than the usual plain. In this paper, through the analysis of the auxiliary function of the APU, especially the importance of APU's word and the influence to the associated system in high high-altitude environments, the conclusive results can be achieved. On one side, it can not only help maintenance personnel to understand the importance of the APU deeply, to strengthen the significance in the process of maintenance, but also provide some reference for the relevant documents for the maintenance or operation of the high high-altitude.
