About the laboratory
Aviation Mechanics Laboratory is dedicated to the aerospace engineering field of studies: Aeronautics engineering, Electronic engineering (Avionics), automatics (aircraft electrical equipment), aircraft piloting and air traffic control study programs.
In this laboratory is held computer modeling and simulation; aerodynamics and flight dynamics; aircraft systems; aircraft structure; aircraft engines; technical diagnostics and maintenance; and other aviation discipline lectures, exercises and practical work.
In the laboratory in addition to designing - construction of low-speed aircraft, unmanned flying vehicle, school gliders is possible.
Currently, aviation mechanics laboratory includes:
Computer Modeling Laboratory
Computer modeling laboratory
In this laboratory takes place aviation disciplines computer modeling works.
Aircraft Systems Laboratory
Aircraft systems laboratory
Currently in this laboratory there is aircraft (YAK-42 and TU-134) table and wall stands. They include fuel, hydraulics, air conditioning, lubrication, de-icing, pressure control, fire extinguishing, water supply and drain, lighting, chassis control, breaking, control surface and other systems.
Laboratory also has fuel, lubrication, air conditioning, pneumatic, hydraulic, control surface, de-icing, fire extinguishing, landing gear and other system parts and assemblies of Boeing 737, ATR-42, Cessna 152, Cessna 172, Cessna 310, An-2, An‑26, Jak-42, Jak-52, Mi-2, Mi-8 aircraft.
With help of aeronautics engineering students table stands of helicopter Mi-2 are being made. Also there are aircraft fuel, lubrication and hydraulic system stands for practical work being designed.
Aircraft Engine Laboratory
Aircraft engine laboratory
In this laboratory students are introduced to aircraft engines: turbo jet D-30 and AI-25, turbo fan D-36, turbo shaft TV2-117A and GTD-350, auxiliary power units TA-6V and AI-9, radial engine А(Sh)-62IR. Due to the lack of space some engines are stored.
In this laboratory also are various engine parts, subassemblies and systems.
After Laboratory and simulator building is built, there are planed:
Aerodynamics Laboratory
Aerodynamics laboratory
This laboratory is currently being developed. It is going to have student made wind tunnels that are currently designed.
Technical Diagnostic Laboratory
Technical diagnostic Laboratory
For this laboratory it is planned to acquire optical, eddy current, ultrasonic and magnetic diagnostic equipment.
Aircraft Structure Laboratory
Aircraft Maintenance Laboratory
