INTRODUCTION
The Black Box is a Flight Recorder used to record specific
aircraft performance parameters.
With any airplane crash, there are many unanswered
questions as to what brought the plane down.
Investigators turn to the airplane's flight data
recorder.(FDR) and cockpit voice recorder (CVR), also
known as "black boxes," for answers.
In Flight 261, the FDR contained 48 parameters of flight
data, and the CVR recorded a little more than 30 minutes
of conversation and other audible cockpit noises.
HISTORY
The first prototype FDR was produced in 1956 by Dr. David
Warren of Aeronautical Research Laboratories of Melbourne,
Australia.
COCKPIT VOICE
RECORDERS
CVR is designed to track the conversations of the
flight crew.
Solid-State Technology
RECORDING AND
STORAGE(MAGNETIC TAPE)
SOLID-STATE
TECHNOLOGY
Solid-state recorders are considered much more reliable
than their magnetic-tape counterparts.
Solid state uses stacked arrays of memory chips
Boards are about 1.75 inches (4.45 cm) in diameter and 1
inch (2.54 cm) tall.
TRANSMISSION OF DATA
Data from both the CVR and FDR is stored on stacked memory
boards inside the crash-survivable memory unit (CSMU).
All of the data collected by the airplane's sensors is sent to the
flight-data acquisition unit (FDAU) at the front of the aircraft .
TESTING A CSMU
There are several tests that make up the crash survival
sequence: Crash impact
Pin drop
Static crush
Fire test
Deep-sea submersion
Salt-water submersion
Fluid immersion
UNDERWATER LOCATOR
BEACON
Black boxes are equipped with an
underwater locator beacon (ULB).
Cylinder is actually a beacon.
Beacon sends out an ultrasonic pulse
submergence sensor
RETRIEVING INFORMATION
This portable interface can allow
investigators quick access to the
data on a black box.
With solid-state recorders
CONCLUSION
From the study of Black Box we derived a information
that how the information about aircraft mishap is
analyzed & unanswered question is answered.
In this study we discuss about various technology
various aspects involved in black box.
