Accessory Drives
Description
This Section describes the accessory gearbox. Mounted on the aft side of the accessory gearbox are the
optional pneumatic or hydraulic starter, optional liquid fuel pump, optional hydraulic pump, and the lube
and scavenge pump. The air/oil separator and the compressor stator control are mounted on the front of
the gearbox. Figure 16-1 is a schematic of the accessory drive system.

Air/Oil Separator
The accessory gearbox is equipped with a dynamic air/oil separator driven off the forward side. The
function of the air/oil separator is to separate the oil from the combined gearbox and bearing sump vent
air/oil mixture. The oil is scavenged from the separator housing by the lube and scavenge pump; the air
is discharged overboard by Purchaser-provided piping.
Maintenance Pad
This pad is the same as is used for the optional hydraulic pump. It is to be used for rotation of the gas
turbine HP rotor during borescope inspection. If the hydraulic pump is installed, it must be removed for
borescope inspection and then reinstalled.
Effect on Performance
The effect of horsepower extraction from the above accessory drive pads on gas turbine performance
may be determined from the LM2500 Aero/Thermal Computerized Performance Deck.
