A mapping device (13) maps each burner mode at various bleed settings to generate control schedules (80) for a combustion controller (11) that ensure combustion dynamic (acoustic) pressures, and emissions limits and ring flame temperatures are within opera...

Fuel control systems for use with a gas turbine engines which accounts for real-time thermodynamic engine effects when attempting to match or track the NDOT Actual rate to the NDOT Demand rate. The fuel control system includes a mechanism for measuring sev...

A gas turbine fuel control method and device controls a lift amount of a pressure control valve. Values such as a pressure for supplying fuel gas to a gas turbine, a pressure in a combustor casing of the gas turbine, an output of a generator connected to t...

A method and system for monitoring engine performance in a gas turbine engine uses a plurality of sensors (100) to sense data related to the operation and performance of the gas turbine engine. Selected data parameters from the sensed data are continuously...

Fuel injection system in a turbomachine, comprising a high-pressure pump (10) for pressurizing fuel from a fuel tank (12) to a high pressure P1, a plurality of fuel injectors (16) arranged in a combustion chamber of the turbomachine (18), and a metering de...

A fuel system interface (36) for a gas turbine engine (10) prevents a rotor from over-speeding and receives either an electrically-originated or a mechanically-originated over-speed signal (72, 74, 76). In the exemplary embodiment, the fuel system interfac...

A control system (10) trims a gas turbine engine (12) in real-time to provide a desired amount of thrust (56). The control system includes a controller (26) coupled to the engine for receiving inputs (30) from the engine regarding a status of the engine. T...
